Ukraine has pushed Putin's army back from its second-largest city in a successful counter-attack as dead bodies of Russian soldiers were found arranged in a grisly Z pattern - the symbol of its invasion - in a recaptured village.
Kyiv's men stormed east out of Kharkiv, in north-eastern Ukraine, on Monday and managed to recapture the town of Staryi Saltiv around 30 miles away, according to a Pentagon intelligence briefing.
The move relieves pressure on Kharkiv, which Putin's men were intending to capture and which has been heavily shelled, while also threatening the main Russian supply route for forces currently fighting in nearby Donbas.
Journalists who ventured out of Kharkiv behind the advancing troops described the nearby countryside as an 'open-air graveyard', with the streets and fields littered with bodies lying unclaimed.
One of the most-gruesome sights was the discovery of what appeared to be Russian corpses arranged into a 'Z' pattern. The bodies of civilians were also found inside apartments and burned-out vehicles nearby. Both likely constitute war crimes.
