Ukrainian authorities identified bodies and pored over the grisly aftermath of alleged Russian atrocities around Kyiv as both sides prepared for an all-out push by Moscow’s forces to seize Ukraine’s industrial east.

Western governments are set to toughen sanctions against Russia and send more weapons to Ukraine, after President Volodymyr Zelensky pointedly accused the world of failing to end Moscow’s invasion of his country and what he said was a campaign of murders, rapes and wanton destruction by its forces.
