Ukraine’s president planned to address the U.N.’s most powerful body on Tuesday after even more grisly evidence emerged of civilian massacres in areas that Russian forces recently left.
BUCHA, Ukraine — Western nations expelled dozens more of Moscow’s diplomats and weighed further sanctions as they expressed their disgust at what they say are war crimes.
High-resolution satellite imagery by commercial provider Maxar Technologies, meanwhile, showed that many of the bodies had been lying in the open for weeks, during the time that Russian forces were in the town. The New York Times first reported on the images showing the dead.» READ MORE:“Only non-humans are capable of this,” said Angelica Chernomor, a refugee from Kyiv who crossed into Poland with her two children, and who had seen the photos from Bucha.
As Western leaders condemned the killings in Bucha, Italy, Spain and Denmark expelled dozens of Russian diplomats on Tuesday, following moves by Germany and France. Hundreds of Russian diplomats have been sent home since the start of the invasion, many accused of being spies. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov called the expulsions a “short-sighted” measure that would complicate communication during the crisis and warned they would be met with “reciprocal steps.
The official said they were probably getting more supplies and reinforcements. Other Western and Ukrainian officials have warned that Russian forces in retreat are merely regrouping. Some are already redeploying to the east, where Moscow-backed separatists have been battling Ukrainian forces in the Donbas region since 2014.“If we had already got what we needed — all these planes, tanks, artillery, anti-missile and anti-ship weapons — we could have saved thousands of people,” he said.
