In Bucha, the Russian military shot civilians, including women, with large-caliber guns of armored vehicles.

Militarnyi informs about this with reference to The New York Times video.

A new video has emerged that adds to mounting evidence of atrocities committed while Russia’s military had control over the suburban town of Bucha, Northwest of Kyiv.

The video captured a cyclist moving along Yablunska Street in Bucha, dismounting and walking a bicycle around the corner onto a street controlled by Russian soldiers.

As soon as the cyclist rounds the turn, a Russian armored vehicle fires several high-caliber rounds along the driveway.

A second armored vehicle fires two shots in the direction of the cyclist. A dust and smoke cloud rise at the scene.

The video features aerial footage recorded by the Ukrainian military back in early March when the Russian forces were still in control of the town.

Weeks later, after Russia withdrew from Bucha, a body in civilian clothes was filmed beside a bicycle in the precise location featured in a second video.

The body, with one leg mangled, was lying behind a concrete utility pillar that has collapsed after the apparent strike.

The damage to the pillar is consistent with the high-caliber ammunition. The person’s clothing — a dark blue top and lighter pants — matches the cyclist’s attire.

In the aerial footage, the Russian armored vehicles visible on the street appear to be BMD-4 infantry fighting vehicles.

The military convoy was stationed at an intersection on Yablonska Street, where later tens of dead bodies have been discovered and reported.

As reported earlier, the review of videos and satellite imagery from Bucha shows that many of the civilians were killed over three weeks ago when Russia’s military had control over the town.

Killed woman

In Bucha, a woman with a bright-red nails style killed by the Russian invaders, whose picture was seen around the whole world, was recognized.

Her name is Iryna, and she visited a local make-up artist the day before the war.

Anastasiia Subacheva, Bucha make-up artist, shared her story.

Anastasiia said that the victim was her client, who attended her “self-make-up” classes.

Olha, Iryna’s daughter, also said that had not had any news about her mother for about a month – the entirety of the time that Bucha had been occupied by Russian invaders.

“Today is exactly a month since the day my mother will no longer write to me and ask “How is mama’s little mouse doing?” And if she saw that I would not be answering her message for a while (that is, for more than one minute, as usual), she would immediately start calling and asking if anyone hurt my feelings. I would answer, “Mom, who would do something like that, everyone knows you”. She loved me so much that she would beat up anyone, who would dare to offend her loved ones, with her bare hands,” Olha wrote.
