BERLIN — Seventy-two years after the end of World War II, a construction crew has found the remains of at least 21 Soviet Red Army soldiers in eastern Germany.

The remains of the Soviet soldiers were found in the town of Seelow, 43 miles east of Berlin, during the construction of a bike path.

Joachim Kozlowski from the Volksbund charity that takes care of war graves said experts will try to identify the soldiers’ remains. He said they likely died during the last days of the war, in the final battles for Berlin between the Soviets and Nazi Germany
