Russia-Ukraine live updates: Russia seeks ‘control’ of southern Ukraine and path to Moldova, commander says

Russian forces committed multiple apparent war crimes while occupying the Ukrainian town of Bucha in March, New York-based Human Rights Watch said in a report released Thursday.

The report adds to the evidence documenting alleged atrocities by Russian troops in Ukraine.

The rights group’s researchers spent a week interviewing residents in Bucha, a suburb of the capital, Kyiv, earlier this month. They found evidence of summary executions, torture and enforced disappearances by Russian forces, “all of which would constitute war crimes and potential crimes against humanity,” the group said.
