Ukraine news – live: Zelensky says Borodyanka atrocities worse than Bucha as Kremlin admits major casualties

Putin’s spokesman claims Bucha’s atrocities were staged

The situation in the Ukrainian town of Borodyanka is “significantly more appalling” than in the neighboring town of Bucha, Volodymyr Zelensky has warned.

The Ukrainian president’s comments came after Western countries condemned the killing of civilians in the town of Bucha as a war crime.

Last week, video and images emerged of a massacre in Bucha after Russian forces withdrew from the town. The atrocities reportedly involved torture, mutilation and beheading. According to the town’s mayor, more than 300 civilians had been found dead.

Moscow denies targeting civilians and says images of bodies in Bucha were staged to justify the West’s plans for more sanctions.

Meanwhile, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov – in an interview with Sky News – denied Russia was responsible for war crimes.

He dismissed suggestions that Vladimir Putin would appear in war crimes tribunal, saying: “We don’t see any possibility for that, we don’t consider it realistic.” But, he admitted that the “significant troop losses” are a “huge tragedy for us”.

Boris Johnson will meet the German Chancellor

Boris Johnson is due to meet the German Chancellor later today as they seek to discuss how to help European countries wean off Russian gas after the attack on Ukraine.

The Prime Minister will receive Olaf Scholz in Downing Street on Friday, with a press conference scheduled for the afternoon.

Mr Johnson is expected to offer assistance to Berlin, which is still heavily dependent on Russian gas, to reduce its dependence on energy exports from Moscow in a bid to starve Vladimir Putin’s war machine.

It comes after Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, following a meeting of NATO counterparts in Brussels on Thursday, said she hoped to see “more countries” commit to banning imports of Russian energy.

UN Human Rights Council suspends ‘meaningful’ Russia – Biden

Joe Biden hailed the United Nations General Assembly’s vote to suspend Russia from the UN Human Rights Council.

The US president has accused Russia of “committing war crimes” since invading Ukraine on February 24.

It comes after Russia – in response to the suspension – decided to give up its membership and called the vote illegal and politically motivated.

Mr Biden said: “This is a significant step on the part of the international community which further demonstrates how [Vladimir] Putin’s war has made Russia an international pariah.

“The United States has worked closely with our allies and partners around the world to drive this vote because Russia is committing gross and systemic human rights abuses. Russian forces are committing war crimes. Russia has no place in the Human Rights Council.

Mr Biden added: “The images we see of Bucha and other parts of Ukraine as Russian troops withdraw are horrific.

“Signs of people being raped, tortured, executed – in some cases, their bodies desecrated – are an outrage to our common humanity. Russia’s lies are no match for the undeniable evidence of what is happening in Ukraine.

According to a translation, Mr. Fedorov said: “The occupiers continue to abduct residents of Melitopol for no reason.

“After attempts to resume education in schools failed, the invaders turned to kindergartens. I am sure that the employees of preschool educational institutions will not collaborate with the occupants.

“An attempt by collaborators to resume college studies also failed. Of the thousands of students, only a few participated. I thank the young people for their conscious position.
