Their hands are tied, they are blindfolded, and gags were placed in their mouths.
The bodies of the three men were found in Myrotske, a town near Bucha in the Kyiv region, which has become emblematic of the brutality of the war in Ukraine and where the bodies of many civilians were also found.
“According to preliminary information, building occupants tried to hide evidence of their abuse, dumped the bodies in a ditch and covered them with earth,” Nebytov said.
Ukrainian authorities found dozens of bodies in plain clothes in areas occupied and later abandoned by the Russian army on the outskirts of Kiev.
Ukraine accuses Russian troops of the massacres, which the Russian government denies.
