Bucha: Bodies seen lying in street as Ukrainian forces recapture areas near Kyiv

Associated Press journalists counted six bodies of civilians scattered along a street and in the front yard of a house.

The Ukrainian soldiers, backed by a column of tanks and armoured vehicles, attached cables to the bodies and pulled them off the street, fearing they may be booby-trapped with explosive devices.

Residents of the town said the civilians were killed by Russian soldiers.

“Those people were just walking and they shot them without any reason. Bang,” said a Bucha resident who declined to give his name.
