Ukraine said that more evidence has emerged of mass killings of civilians and other atrocities by Russian forces in regions around Kyiv, while dismissing Russian denials of committing war crimes as “lies” and “new old tactics of Russian propagandists.”
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a video address early on April 5 that he had visited cities in the Kyiv region that had been liberated from Russian occupying forces, namely Stoyanka, Irpin, and Bucha.
