UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Sunday called for an independent probe into the horrific deaths of civilians in Bucha, near Kyiv.
The UN head expressed his "deep shock" after seeing the images of dead civilians in the Ukrainian town of Bucha in a post on Twitter. Guterres also said "effective accountability" from those responsible for the heinous crime.
"I am deeply shocked by the images of civilians killed in Bucha, Ukraine," Guterres said in a Twitter post.
"It is essential that an independent investigation leads to effective accountability," he said.
The comments came after Ukraine authorities said around 300 people were killed on the outskirts of Kyiv as the Russian army retreated following a month-long invasion.
Meanwhile, Russia refuted the allegations. The Russian Defense Ministry said that all photographs showing Russian forces' crimes in Bucha are another provocation since all Russian units departed from the town as early as March 30.
