Russian troops have allegedly raped a pregnant 16-year-old pregnant girl and a 78-year-old grandmother in a Ukrainian village, a senior military official said, as evidence that Vladimir Putin's men have been committing war crimes mounts. 

Putin's troops also shelled a boat that was evacuating 14 civilians from the Kherson region on Thursday, killing four people including a 13-year-old child, Oleksandr Vilkul, the head of the military administration of Kryvyi Rih, said.
