the following text was word by word copied from the New York Times (source https://nypost.com/2022/04/05/ukrai.....cher-of-bucha/ ):
Ukrainian activists claim to have identified the so-called “Butcher of Bucha,” a decorated Russian commander leading the unit that massacred hundreds of civilians in what is being widely condemned as genocide.
Lt. Col. Azatbek Omurbekov, thought to be around 40, was first identified by InformNapalm, a Ukrainian volunteer group that monitors Russia’s military and special services.
It shared his home address as well as email and telephone number, calling him the “military villain” behind the massacre in Bucha, the suburb of Kyiv where bodies have been left strewn in the street or thrown into mass graves.
The group IDed Omurbekov as leading the 64th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade, which the war-torn nation’s Ministry of Defense also blamed online for “committing war crimes” in Bucha.

The New York Times released an evidence video depicting a scene from the Bucha massacre, thus proving its accuracy and revealing russian claims of the Bucha massacre being staged as the very thing that most of us already knew these claims were: russian lies.
The video, which was given to the NYT by the Ukrainian Military, shows a man pushing a bicycle along the sidewalk when he was suddenly being fired upon by turret gunners in russian armored personal carriers. the video was verified as accurate by the NYT for the simple reason that the man's body was discovered at the very same spot he was in the video when ukrainian forces reclaimed Bucha.
In protest to the massacre in Bucha, a russian activist has reportedly protested by lying down on the ground with hands tied behind their hands to mimic the Bucha massacre. the activist did this in several prominent public areas of Moscow, including in front of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour. this was reported by Holod.media, one of the last remaining independent russian media services.
in Hostomel, a suburb of Kyiv that was also briefly occupied by russian forces, around 400 of its citizens are missing. it is unclear whether they were abducted into russian or have been butchered as well.
Russian soldiers are apparently using Belarus to ship ukrainian items stolen during the invasion back to their homes in Russia.
the US military high command suggested to create permanent US military bases in eastern-european Nato member states along the NATO eastern border with russia.

Japan did the same in China during World War Two ("The Three Alls Policy").
