STORYLINE:
Two Ukrainians have set up an exhibition in the centre of Berlin, showcasing a burnt out, bullet-riddled car from a town outside the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv where hundreds of civilians were found dead after Russia withdrew from the area in late March.
The car was brought to Berlin from Bucha by two soldiers from Ukraine's Territorial Defence Force.
"It was not problem for me to visit Bucha's car cemetery and just to take some car with a tragic story," said one of the project initiators, Andriy Radnyuk.
Ukraine's ambassador to Germany, Andrij Melnyk, was at the inauguration of the exhibition, and said the installation was "a legacy, a testament that this war has not diminished in its brutality".
The civilian killings at Bucha have become a symbol of the brutality of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Municipal authorities say 458 bodies have been found in the Bucha area after the 33-day Russian occupation.
They include 12 bodies of children, in most cases killed with their parents.
Estonia, Finland and other EU countries bordering Russia have now been pushing for an EU-wide ban on Russian tourists.
But some leaders, including German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, have dismissed the idea as counterproductive.
