Serhiy Bolvinov, head of the Kharkiv Oblast police investigation department, said that the people were trying to escape the then-occupied city of Kupiansk in May when they hit a Russian landmine in the nearby village of Vasylenkove.

Among the killed were four men, aged 18, 19, 20, and 41, as well as a 50-year-old woman.

Their bodies were discovered on Oct. 2 following the liberation of the area from Russian forces.
