Ukraine: Russia fires on convoy of evacuees

Ukraine accuses Russia of shelling a convoy of evacuees on Saturday. As a result, seven people are said to have died, including one child.

The women and children tried to get away from a village near Kiev, according to Ukrainian intelligence. The Russians allegedly forced them to return to the village.

There is no independent confirmation of the attack, and the Russian side did not immediately respond to the accusation.

Ukraine has repeatedly accused Russia of thwarting evacuations by failing to abide by a ceasefire. According to Russia, the Ukrainians are to blame for the failed evacuations.
