Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky has compared Russian forces to Islamist terrorists for the horrific war crimes carried out by retreating soldiers.
In an impassioned speech, Zelensky urged the UN Security Council in New York to set up Nuremberg-style war trials akin to those held after the defeat of the Nazis.
Zelensky detailed reports of how Vladimir Putin’s troops killed hundreds as they retreated from Bucha, a suburb near Kyiv in the month-long conflict which has seen over 3,000 civilians killed.
