Russian Soldiers Redeploying Away From Kyiv Leave Behind 'Catastrophe'
Russian soldiers redeploying away from Ukrainian capital Kyiv and towards the Donbas region in the country's east have left behind a catastrophe, including landmines, their equipment and corpses, said President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Earlier, the Russians had announced a reduction of military activities near Kyiv and in the northern city of Chernihiv but they have since redeployed to the east instead of retreating.
