The United Nations says it plans to have its own human rights experts to investigate the massacre in the Ukrainian town of Bucha.
A spokesperson for the UN Human Rights Office in Geneva said a 50-member UN team is to be stationed in the western Ukrainian city of Uzhgorod, about 800 kilometres from Kiev and the suburb of Bucha.
No date was given for the dispatch yet.
An investigative commission of independent lawyers will also be looking into what happened in Bucha, UN spokesperson Liz Throssell said.
“The panel has been tasked with gathering evidence of possible war crimes on behalf of the UN Human Rights Council.
“This is advancing on multiple fronts,” she added.
