More than 900 civilian bodies have been found near the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, the area's regional police chief has said.
The bodies have been discovered in the wake of Russia forces withdrawing from around the capital city. Andriy Nebytoc, head of Kyiv's regional police force, claims the bodies were abandoned in the streets or received temporary burials.
He referred to official police data which indicated that 95 per cent of those found died form gunshot wounds. He added: "Consequently, we understand that under the [Russian] occupation, people were simply executed in the streets.
