Vladimir stands beside a mass grave in the city of Bocha, on the outskirts of Kyiv.

He holds his head in his hands and looks up at the sky.

"My brother. We've been looking for them for a long time," he says, bursting into tears.

His brother, Dmitry, according to CNN, has been missing for a week - neighbors said he may have been buried in the mass grave.

"We thought you were alive," Vladimir shouts.



Further down the street you can see two bodies lying on the street, their hands tied behind their backs with the help of a white cloth.

They were shot in the mouth.

In all, the bodies of about 20 civilians were found lying on a street in Bocha by Ukrainian forces.

According to the AFP news agency, three bodies were lying in the middle of the road and another body was lying in the yard of a house.



An open Ukrainian passport is on the sidewalk next to a man with his hands tied behind his back.

The bodies were not dressed in military uniforms, but in civilian clothes - winter coats, jackets, sweaters, jeans or running shorts, boots or sneakers.



Two bodies were lying next to a pair of abandoned bicycles, the Guardian reported, with another body lying next to a bombed-out car.

Some of the bodies were lying on the sidewalk with their faces visible and their limbs unnaturally crooked, others lying with their faces to the ground.

The face of the dead has taken on a sort of waxy white hue, suggesting that they have been in this condition for several days.



Inside the mass grave, the bodies are piled on top of each other, most of them in black plastic bags, but you can still see different body parts peeking out of the bags - only a few are properly buried.



According to CNN, at least 12 bodies were dumped at the mass grave but according to the evidence on the ground, it appears that more bodies are buried marrying.

You can also see hands and other body parts peeking through the ground.
