Images of a new mass grave are captured near Mariupol with 200 new plots.

 Recent satellite images from Maxar Technologies, a US space technology company, show a mass burial site in the Russian-occupied village of Manhush, about 12 miles west of Mariupol, containing more than 200 new plots alongside an existing cemetery, reported the Washington Post. The satellite images show several rows of graves in four distinct sections, each measuring nearly 280 feet. Maxar’s review of the images indicates that the new graves appeared March 23-26, and the company said additional plots have appeared in the weeks since. Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to the mayor of Mariupol, wrote on his Facebook page that the photos reflect “the whole scope of the tragedy of Mariupol, the inhumanity of the Russians” and amount to “direct evidence of war crimes and attempts to cover them up.”
