After images of civilian bodies strewn across the streets of the city of Bucha, near the Ukrainian capital Kiev, surfaced, Mayor Anatoliy Fedoruk told a journalist from CNN Brianna Keilar through a translator on Monday morning (4) that “we will not forgive the Russians for the atrocities that happened here”.
He said that “half the city is destroyed” and that it is busy transitioning from “a situation of war to a peaceful life”.
They are working on identifying the bodies of civilians who have been killed, which the mayor claims were “murdered indiscriminately by the Russian invaders. Many were elderly.”
We get the impression that the Russian invaders were given a green light by Putin and Shoigu, the Russian Defense Minister, to go on safari in Ukraine, and failed to take Kiev, so they took out their frustration on Bucha and the surrounding areas.

About 3,000 people stayed in the city, which normally has a population of around 500,000, a month after the invasion, according to the mayor, who also decided to stay. They were “witnesses to horrible events”.
Fedoruk noted that many children and teenagers were victims of the carnage, despite “posing no threat” to Russian troops. “It is impossible not to see that they were children, not to see that a mother is carrying a child,” he told CNN.
He said you can expect to see the same kind of atrocities photographs from Kiev to Mariupol, everywhere the Russians have entered, adding that what Putin described as “denazification” is actually the “dehumanization of Ukrainians.”
