War

 NY Times: Collecting the Dead Russia Left Behind - Civilians who gather dead Russian soldiers face many of the war’s perils along the front, where death is ubiquitous. Photographs By Tyler Hicks - Written By Marc Santora - Tyler Hicks and Marc Santora traveled with civilian body collectors and the Ukrainian military to several hot spots along the front to report this story.

Mr. Yusov has been collecting bodies from the bloody fields and battered villages of eastern Ukraine for a decade. He is now the head of a group of civilian volunteers called Platsdarm, and has witnessed more death than he would care to remember.
