COMMANDER WHO ORDERED BUCHA CIVILIAN KILLINGS IDENTIFIED BY UKRAINE
Ukraine has named Yurii Kim, a Russian officer, as responsible for ordering the torture, execution, and burning of civilians during Russia’s brutal occupation of Bucha in 2022.
The town became a symbol of war crimes after hundreds of bodies, including children and the elderly, were found in mass graves and basements.
This is the first time a Russian commander has been formally targeted with a war crimes notice over the massacre.
