He said the bodies of 55 people had been exhumed in the town, including civilians. Both died on May 24, 2022, during the period when Russian forces were battling to seize Lyman. Kyrylenko said that preliminary results on the 55 exhumed bodies indicated deaths resulted from "explosive and projectile injuries, bullet injuries". Last month the bodies of 436 people were exhumed from a burial site in the northeastern town of Izium after it was liberated.
