THE GUARDIAN - PUTIN WAR CRIMES - ANDREY KURKOV
Title "I have run out of words for the horror of Putin's crimes in Ukraine" by Andrey Kirkov.
Excerpt: I have long since run out of words to describe the horror brought by Putin to Ukrainian soil. Ukraine the land of bread and wheat. Even in Egypt, bread and cakes are baked using Ukrainian flour. It;s the time of year to prepare the fields for sowing, but this work is not being done. The soil of the wheat fields is full of metal - fragments of shells, pieces of blown-up tanks and cars, the remains of downed planes and helicopters. And it's all covered in blood. The blood of Russian soldiers who do not understand what they are fighting for, and the blood of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians who know that if they do not fight, Ukraine will no longer exist. In its place there will be a cemetery with a caretaker's hut and some kind of governor general send from Russia will sit and guard it.
