Bodies found at a mass burial site in Ukraine had signs of torture, Ukrainian officials said. The site is located in Izium, Ukraine, which has been recently retaken from Russian occupation. Ukrainian Deputy Interior Minister Yevhen Enin said the bodies unearthed from the area had "traces of a violent death." Ukrainian officials believe that the majority of those found were civilians. In recent days, Russia has suffered disastrous defeats in the war as Ukrainian forces reclaimed thousands of square miles of territory from Russian occupation in a stunning and lightning-fast counteroffensive.

Zelenskyy traveled to the recently liberated front-line city of Izium for a ceremony Wednesday. The Ukrainian president has made numerous trips to the war's front lines, unlike Putin. Today, when we look up, we are looking for only one thing — the flag of Ukraine," Zelenskyy wrote in a post on his Telegram channel, which included photos of his visit. And it will be so in every Ukrainian city and village. As Russian forces retreated in Ukraine, Putin over the weekend opened a ferris wheel in Moscow.

Wagner is a Russian private military company with close ties to the Kremlin that is now in Ukraine. In a video shared on Telegram, the group's founder can be seen recruiting at a Russian prison. Wagner's Yevgeny Prigozhin claims the men will receive pardons if they agree to fight in Ukraine. Prigozhin's offer to Russian prisoners — to fight in a conflict he bills as being far more difficult than the war Russia fought in Chechnya and Afghanistan — comes with other conditions beyond the threat of execution for deserters. In the video, Prigozhin says he's prepared to accept men between the ages of 22 and 50 but can accept younger recruits with the consent of their families.

☆ Putin is facing pressure from Russia's hawkish nationalists who want all-out war in Ukraine

As the nationalists' most prominent figurehead, Igor Girkin has been among the most searing in his criticism of Russia's military strategy. Addressing his followers last week, Girkin said: "The war in Ukraine will continue until the complete defeat of Russia. The Smolninskoye District Court ruled that the municipal council should be dissolved and subsequently charged the deputies with "discrediting" Russia's military. The widespread purging of liberals and journalists that occurred in the early days of the Ukraine war is relatively straightforward in Russia. But cracking down on ultra- nationalists is more dangerous and may have dire consequences – especially if Russia loses the war.
