Kremlin
Russia has given the most sombre assessment so far of its invasion of Ukraine, describing the "tragedy" of mounting troop losses and the economic hit from sanctions, as Ukrainians were evacuated from eastern cities before an anticipated major offensive.
Russia's six-week long invasion has seen more than 4 million people flee abroad, killed or injured thousands, turned cities into rubble and led to sweeping sanctions on its leaders and companies. -
Borodyanka
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the situation in the town of Borodyanka was "significantly more dreadful" than in nearby Bucha, where Russian forces' suspected killing of civilians has been broadly condemned.
In Borodyanka, about 60km northwest of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, families looking for relatives watched diggers search through the rubble of an apartment block.
Mr Zelensky said in a video posted on the Telegram messaging service the devastation in Borodyanka was worse than in Bucha, where officials have said more than 300 people had been killed by Russian forces, with about 50 of them executed.
Earlier, Ukraine's prosecutor general, Iryna Venediktova, said in the Kyiv region, which includes Borodyanka, Bucha and other towns and villages such as Irpin, the authorities had found "650 dead bodies, from them it is 40 dead bodies only kids".
Borodyanka is 25km from Bucha. -

10 critics of Vladimir Putin who died violently or in suspicious ways
2015: Boris Nemtsov
In Feb. 2015, just hours after urging the public to join a march against Russia's military involvement in Ukraine, Nemtsov was shot four times in the back by an unknown assailant within view of the Kremlin. Putin took "personal control" of the investigation into Nemtsov’s murder, but the killer remains at large.
2013: Boris Berezovsky
Berezovsky is believed to have been instrumental in Putin's rise to power. But Berezovsky was unable to exert the influence under the new president he had hoped. His falling out with Putin led to his self-exile in the United Kingdom, where he vowed to bring down the president. Berezovsky was found dead inside a locked bathroom at his home in the United Kingdom, a noose around his neck, in what was at first deemed a suicide. However, the coroner’s office could not determine the cause of death.

2006: Alexander Litvinenko
Alexander Litvinenko was a former KGB agent who died three weeks after drinking a cup of tea laced with deadly polonium-210 at a London hotel.
A British inquiry found that Litvinenko was poisoned by Russian agents Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitry Kovtun, who were acting on orders that had 'probably been approved’ by Putin.
In 2015 the Russian president granted Lugovoi a medal for "services to the motherland."Litvinenko had become a vocal critic of the KGB, which was run by Putin, and later blamed the security service for orchestrating a series of apartment bombings in Russia in 1999 that left hundreds dead. Russia's invasion of Chechnya followed later that year — and with it, the rise to power of Putin.

"In order to accuse Russia of an alleged missile strike on the
Kramatorsk railway station, the Kiev regime has posted on social
media pictures of 'Tochka-U' launchers that took part in the
Russian-Belarusian exercise 'Union Resolve 2022' in February
2022"
"Please note, all photos published by Kiev from the 'Union Resolve
2022' exercise show non-Russian missile systems."
"Tactical missiles 'Tochka-U', whose wreckage was found near the
railway station in Kramatorsk, are used only by the Ukrainian
armed forces"
"According to clarified data, the strike on the railway station of
Kramatorsk was carried out by a missile division of the Ukrainian
armed forces from the area of the settlement of Dobropolye, 45
kilometers southwest of the city.'
"The purpose of the Kiev regime's strike on the train station in
Kramatorsk was to disrupt the mass departure of residents from
the city in order to use them as a 'human shield' to defend AFU
