What's the latest on the Ukraine war? April 8, 11AM

Good morning to our readers. If you're just joining us, here's what's happened so far, Qazet.az presents you a quick recap:

  • Russian troops have now "fully withdrawn" from northern Ukraine, says the UK Ministry of Defence. Some of those units will be moved to the east to fight in the Donbas, the MoD has said
  • Ukraine's President Zelensky says the destruction being uncovered in the recaptured town of Borodyanka is worse than what has been seen in Bucha
  • Clear evidence Russian troops rounded up Ukrainian civilians in and around Obukhovychi, a village north west of Kyiv on the way to Belarus, and used them as human shields
  • The mayor of Dnipro has urged women, children and the elderly to leave the central city, as fears grow of intensified fighting in eastern Ukraine
