War crimes in Ukraine | DW Documentary

In February, Russia launched an all-out attack on Ukraine. A few days later, drone videos provided the first evidence of war crimes - committed on a highway outside Kyiv. Reporters tracked down survivors and identified suspects. The investigating prosecutor s office believes more than 30 civilians were killed. Who were the perpetrators? As it turns out, there is a good deal of evidence: Occupying soldiers failed to remove incriminating evidence before they withdrew from the northern suburbs of Kyiv. Along the Zhytomyr highway, where the soldiers had set up camp, reporters uncovered a papertrail. Among other documents, they found forms that Russian soldiers had countersigned for the receipt of weapons and ammunition. These clues lead to a notorious Russian army unit. In "Death Road", one of the many war crimes against Ukrainian civilians is reconstructed with the help of witnesses, victims and documents. #documentary #dwdocumentary #ukraine #warzone ______ DW Documentary gives you knowledge beyond the headlines.
