Elsewhere, Russian forces have been accused of shooting dead Olga Sohnenko, the mayor of Motyzhyn, a town 30 miles west of the capital, along with her husband and son.
The bodies were allegedly thrown into a pit in a pine forest behind houses where Vladimir Putin’s troops slept, according to the Associated Press.
