Yevgen Korniychuk incensed by defense minister supposedly referring to Russian invasion as a 'conflict'; minister's office says he discussed mediation efforts with both sides
Ukrainian officials have warned that the slaughter of hundreds of civilians by Russian troops on the outskirts of Kyiv could be just the tip of the iceberg and that other towns have seen worse atrocities.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, making his plea via video, cited reported atrocities against civilians carried out by Russian forces in the town of Bucha on the outskirts of the capital Kyiv, saying they are no different than other terrorists like the Islamic State extremist group.
