Another grim but necessary piece. Thank you.

I’m shocked and sickened by the butchery in Bucha. However I don’t understand your headlining this report as the killing of MEN 16-60, when the body of the story also notes murder and probably mass rapes of women. It’s essential that these war crimes be treated as seriously as mass murder/execution of “draft-age” men.

You yourself exemplify the value of women, as reporters and witnesses let alone Moms/child minders/warriors in their own right. True many Moms of younger children have fled (with their children in tow) - and are now widowed by the murders of men back home. But elder women (some still mothering), and unmarried/childless women who have stayed in UKR, leave proud legacies of community service and patriotism. Please give them due respect. Thank you.
