'Torture room' with hand-tied bodies found in Ukraine town seized from Russian troops

dailystar.co.uk:

Ukrainian town won back from retreating Russian soldiers, state officials claim.Graphic images of dead bodies discarded among rubble have been shared by the Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office who claim the photos were taken in a chilling building in Bucha.The Office alleges the corpses belonged to citizens who had been tortured and killed by Russian soldiers when Moscow had a fleeting grip on the city.Ukrainian officials say 410 civilians have been killed in the towns surrounding Kyiv so far with 300 partially buried or not buried at all in Bucha alone.Bodies of men, women and children were also seen strewn across roads in Bucha over the weekend after Vladimir Putin's invading military pulled back from the city.

The horrendous disregard for civilian life as evidenced by a tragic mass grave has been widely condemned with international governing bodies pledging to punish Russia for it.

The Prosecutor General’s Office said in a Facebook post. “Soldiers of the Russian Federation armed forces tortured unarmed civilians and then killed them.” It also claims Ukrainians had their hands tied behind their backs and shot dead.

Kitted out in body armour, President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Bucha on Monday which he said made agreeing to peace talks with Putin even harder to stomach.
