A Russian soldier is due to stand trial today for allegedly killing an unarmed Ukrainian civilian - the first war crime case to go to court since Russia's invasion began.
Sgt Vadim Shyshimarin is accused of shooting a 62-year-old man in the head through an open car window in the north-eastern village of Chupakhivka.
He faces up to life in prison under the penalties stated in the section of the Ukrainian criminal code that addresses the laws and customs of war.
His attorney, Victor Ovsyanikov, said the case against him is strong, but the final decision over what evidence to allow will be made by the court in Kyiv, AP news reports.
He said that he and his client had not yet decided how he will plead.
