WASHINGTON (AN) – Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine reached the one-year mark with no end in sight, in a war proving especially cruel to the children being killed, crippled, orphaned or kidnapped by Russian forces.
Diplomats condemned the cruelty at Friday's meeting of the U.N. Security Council, but there was little they could do besides offering fiery speeches since Russia holds one of the 15-nation council's five veto-wielding seats.
