BUCHA: Ukraine\u0027s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called Russian troops \u0022murderers, torturers, rapists, looters\u0022 on Monday (Apr 4) after dozens of bodies were found near Kyiv, triggering global outrage and vows of tough new sanctions on Moscow. Local authorities said they had been forced to dig communal

Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba accused Russia of a"deliberate massacre", while Zelenskyy's spokesman, Sergiy Nikiforov, said the killings in Bucha"looks exactly like war crimes".

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki on Monday called for an international investigation into what he termed a"genocide". He also appeared in a taped message at the Grammys, urging people to"tell the truth about this war ... support us in any way you can, any, but not silence". In the eastern city of Kramatorsk, women, children and elderly people were boarding trains to flee the Donbas region.

"We were woken up by the first explosion, then we saw a flash in the sky, then another, then another. I lost count," resident Mykola, 22, told AFP. The UN's top humanitarian envoy Martin Griffiths is expected in Kyiv soon after arriving in Moscow on Sunday in an attempt to halt the fighting.
