A Russian soldier has been arrested after a horrifying video of a baby being raped emerged online.
Alexei Bychkov has been named in Russian media as the soldier who has been arrested and it is believed that the footage originates from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
If true, it would be the latest Russian atrocity to shock the world with troops repeatedly accused of committing war crimes and genocide, The Mirror reports.
The video has been shared on the app Telegram and other social media platforms although few details about it have been confirmed.
Ukraine media reports that the man sent sick images and videos to a fellow soldier and it spread from there.
On Saturday, Boris Johnson made a surprise visit to the Ukraine capital Kyiv where he spoke with President Volodymyr Zelensky and walked the city's streets.
Mr Johnson said that while Russian forces attacking Kyiv had suffered a defeat, their withdrawal was "tactical" as they prepared to refocus their military efforts on the east.
He strongly condemned the "war crimes" being uncovered in the wake of their departure, with scores bodies of civilians who have been shot and killed being reported by the Ukrainian authorities.
"I think what Putin has done in places like Bucha and Irpin, his war crimes have permanently polluted his reputation and the reputation of his government," he said.
Mr Zelensky welcomed the UK's "decisive and significant support" for his country as he urged other Western allies to intensify the pressure on Moscow.
Earlier this week at the UN, Mr Zelensky showed a short video of burned, bloodied and mutilated bodies, including children, in Irpin, Dymerka, Mariupol and Bucha, where Ukraine accuses Russian troops of killing hundreds of civilians.
Russia's UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia then told the Security Council that Russian troops are not targeting civilians, dismissing accusations of abuse as lies.
He said that while Bucha was under Russian control "not a single civilian suffered from any kind of violence."
