The long-suffering and war-weary residents of Donetsk have had to learn about a new instrument in Kiev’s arsenal of torture devices in the last month.

Whose War Crimes in Ukraine?
No-one disputes that many war crimes have been committed since Russian forces moved into Ukraine. But the question is by whom and under what circumstances were such crimes committed.

Identifying the Victims, Revisiting Douma
It has become a critical element in the war of disinformation launched against Russia – that the identities of the victims of this war are rarely disclosed, nor even known.

The huge bronze sculpture of St George slaying the Nazi dragon provided the inspiration for my Christmas greetings card in… Continue reading From Damascus to Donetsk..
