Sky's HaynesDeborah speaks to Serhij Matuyk, whose job is to retrieve and bury bodies in the Ukrainian town of Bucha where evidence has emerged of possible war crimes by Russian forces
The bodies of around 300 civilians have been found in Bucha since Russian troops took control of the town, about 16 miles northwest of Kyiv, in the early days of the invasion, Mr Matuyk said. He predicted more would be discovered."During the worst of the shelling there were a lot of bodies and we buried them in mass graves," Mr Matuyk said.
Asked whether any of the corpses had revealed evidence of torture, Mr Matuyk said:"Yes, sure. For example, on Sunday, 20 out of 30 people had their hands tied. A fourth man had been killed by a blow to the head from a rifle butt, while the fifth victim had been shot multiple times in the chest.
