Meanwhile, Russia has retaken several towns, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.Allegations: 22 People Killed in Occupied VillageRussia's Investigative Committee has accused Ukrainian soldiers of killing 22 people in the occupied village of Russkoye Porechnoye, located about 20 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. The victims include eight women who were allegedly raped before being executed.The brutality and scale of these alleged atrocities are staggering, underscoring the need for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian intervention.Investigation and EvidenceRussian investigators have blamed five Ukrainian soldiers for the killings, with one suspect, Yevgeny Fabrisenko, arrested during the fighting in the Kursk region. A video of Fabrisko's interrogation has been released, in which he confesses to the crimes.The availability of this evidence raises questions about Ukraine's response and accountability.International ResponseAs the international community continues to grapple with the crisis, there has been no official response from Ukraine.
