Scenes of death, destruction and despair in Chernigiv after Russian occupation

Description

The city of Chernigiv, just 50 km from the Belarusian border, was never captured by Russian forces, but it was pounded with artillery and airstrikes for more than a month before the invading army withdrew. City officials estimate around 350 civilians were killed, and signs of the bombardment are everywhere: from drawings left behind by children hiding in the hospital basement for days, to the mass graves of the residents of an apartment building.
