Russia's Vagner Group said members of its forces found the body of one of two British volunteer aid workers who had been reported missing in eastern Ukraine. A statement issued on January 11 by the group did not identify the man but said documents belonging to the Britons had been found with him. The statement included a photo that appeared to show passports bearing the names of Andrew Bagshaw and Christopher Parry, the two missing workers. Ukrainian police had announced on January 9 they were looking for the pair after they went missing. To read the original story from Reuters, click here.
