Description
The first war crimes trial since Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, against a Russian soldier accused of killing an unarmed civilian, gets underway in Kyiv.
Russian serviceman Vadim Shishimarin, 21, appears at a district court, accused of killing a 62-year-old man in north-east Ukraine and charged with war crimes and premeditated murder.
The trial, expected to be followed by several others, will test the Ukrainian justice system at a time when international institutions are also conducting their own investigations into abuses committed by Russian forces. IMAGES
