A Ukrainian psychologist described the horrors two soldiers went through in a new report by The Times. Anzhelika Yatsenko cried when she learned the young men were castrated while prisoners of Russia. It was "the first time I behaved not like a professional psychologist," she told The Times. The soldiers struggled to tell their psychologist, who specializes in troubled young men, what happened to them. While sexual violence against women and girls is widely covered in the context of war, sexual violence against men is less well-documented.
