Residents of the village of Yahidne, north of the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, say more than 300 people were trapped for weeks by Russian occupiers in a school basement.

She said Muzyka's body lay for a few days in a boiler room until, during a break in shelling, some people were allowed to take the dead to be buried in hastily dug graves in the village cemetery.

As well as those, mostly elderly, who died of exhaustion in the stifling, cramped conditions, Tolochina named others she said were killed by Russian soldiers, including Viktor Shevchenko and his brother Anatolii, known as Tolya. "They started looting, took everything they could grab," said 71-year old Petro Hlystun, who witnessed the scene. "There was a light torch, a tablet computer my son brought from Poland. They took it all."

"For the elderly, it was difficult to stay there in the dark without fresh air, so it was mostly the old who died."
