The first war crimes trial of a Russian soldier since the start of Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine has opened in Kyiv.

A 21-year-old captured member of a tank unit is accused of shooting to death a 62-year-old civilian during the war’s first week.

Scores of journalists packed inside a small courtroom in the Ukrainian capital where suspect Sergeant Vadim Shyshimarin appeared in a small glass cage.
