Ukrainian President Zelenskyy says mass grave discovered in Izium after Russian troop withdrawal
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a mass grave has been discovered in the city of Izium in Ukraine’s northern Kahakiv region following Russia's withdrawal from the area last week.
The finding hints at atrocities reportedly committed by Russian troops in other areas of Ukraine like Bucha, a suburb of Kyiv, where reports of torture and civilian killings sparked international investigations into Russia’s actions.
"A mass burial site was found in Izium," Zelenskyy said in his Thursday night address. "The necessary procedural actions have already begun there."
The Associated Press reported that its journalists saw the site in a forest outside Izium on Thursday. A mass grave had a marker saying it contained the bodies of 17 Ukrainian soldiers. It was surrounded by hundreds of individual graves with only crosses to mark them.
Some of the bodies found at a mass burial site in Izium, an eastern Ukrainian city recently recaptured from Russian forces, showed “signs of torture,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Friday, blaming Russia for what he called “cruelty and terrorism.”
Authorities found 440 unmarked graves at the largest burial site found in Izium, Ukraine’s Defense Ministry said on Friday.
Ukraine’s Center for Strategic Communications said on Thursday that some of the graves discovered at Izium were “fresh,” and that the corpses buried there were “mostly civilians.”
The International Criminal Court, several allied nations and Kyiv have launched investigations into the thousands of alleged atrocities and human right abuses, including torture of civilians and Ukrainian troops, along with civilian killings.
