Ukrainian authorities have found a mass grave containing 440 bodies in Izium, a northeastern city recaptured from Russian forces, calling it proof of war crimes carried out by the invaders in territory they had occupied for months. Video shot by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty on Thursday (September 15) showed Ukrainian servicemen working on a grave site covered in wooden crosses. Reuters could not immediately verify the Ukrainian reports and there was no immediate comment from Russia. In the past it has denied its troops target civilians or commit atrocities.
