Kremlin dismisses mass burial
discoveries as 'lies'
KUPIANSK : The Kremlin
on Monday denied its forces
were responsible for largescale
killings in east Ukraine
and accused Kyiv of
fabricating its discoveries of
mass graves in recaptured
territory.
In the latest incident
spurring fears of an atomic
emergency, Ukraine said
Russian rockets landed
dangerously close to a
nuclear power station in
southern Ukraine.
Ukraine recaptured Izyum
and other towns in the east
this month, crippling
Kremlin supply routes and
bringing fresh claims of
Russian atrocities with the
discovery of hundreds of
graves-some containing
multiple bodies.
"These are lies," Kremlin
spokesman Dmitry Peskov
told reporters on Monday.
Moscow, he said, "will stand
up for the truth in this story".
Fighting in the northeast
has raged and AFP
journalists heard artillery
exchanges in frontline
Kupiansk on Monday, as
traumatised civilians headed
out of the town now mainly
in Ukrainian hands.
The streets were strewn
with broken glass, spent
cartridge casings and the
discarded remains of ration
packs issued by both forces.
Most of the fire was
outgoing, with Ukrainian
tanks and artillery targeting
Russian positions on the
west side of the town, over a
mess of broken bridges. A
column of smoke rose in the
distance.
At the entrance to the
town, cowering from the
sounds of Ukrainian tank
shells passing overhead
towards Russian lines,
civilians gathered to hitch
rides or join buses to head
out into safer Ukrainian
territory.
"It was impossible to stay
where we were living," said
56-year-old Lyudmyla, who
braved the constant crack of
shells to cross the Oskil river
from the disputed east bank
to the relative safety of the
west.
"There was incoming fire
not just every day, but
literally every hour. It's very
tough there, on the other
bank of the river."
In his address to the
nation on Monday,
Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelensky said
the Russians were
"panicking" as his forces
held recaptured territory in
the northeastern Kharkiv
region.
