The first major Ukrainian city to fall into Russian hands has been re-adjusting to life back in Kyiv's control since last Friday, when the Kremlin withdrew its 30,000 troops to the east side of the Dnipro. The city has been left in a state of ruin, with most businesses either shut, looted or war-damaged. Homes are cut off from electricity, gas and water.
Volodymyr Kaluga, the senior Kherson prosecutor, said that investigations had been opened into 869 cases in which people had been detained and tortured. So far only 480 of the alleged victims had been found. Asked if he knew what had happened to the rest, he replied: "Unfortunately not".
Maxim, who was on a list of former Ukrainian troops the Russians found, was interrogated for three weeks, beaten and electrocuted. "Our captors were partly just following orders, but also seemed to be acting out of hatred."
Meri Akopyan, a deputy interior minister, said that community leaders and local officials were among those still unaccounted for. "We don't know whether these missing people have been killed, taken to Russia, or simply not tracked down yet."
