New reports say Russian occupiers left explosives in the apartments of Bucha.
Ukraine’s Interior Minister told local reporters that the Russian soldiers went into apartments and left grenades if they found Ukrainian symbols or documents of a Ukrainian serviceman.
According to the Kyiv independent, the minister added that according to international standards, a day of active hostilities means a month of demining and the work is “extremely difficult and responsible.”
Zelensky accused Russian troops of carrying out the most brutal and terrible war crimes since World War Two, following the distressing footage from the town of Bucha.
