Zelensky overcome with emotion as he visits horror at Bucha

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was visibly emotional Monday when he visited the ruins of the Ukrainian town Bucha, a suburb located northwest of the country’s capital city Kyiv.

Dozens of bodies lay on the street, left behind after Russian soldiers retreated from the area. Some of the bodies were shot at close-range, others had signs of torture reminiscent of the Soviet’s attack on Germany during World War II.
