18 Photos Capture Russia’s Onslaught Against Citizens of Ukraine

As a third round of peace talks Monday yielded little progress toward ending Russia’s Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine, an estimated 2 million Ukrainians have fled to neighboring countries.

Women and children have said goodbye to their husbands, fathers, and brothers as men ages 18 to 60 remain to fight the Russian army.

Here are 18 photos that capture the agony of Ukrainians as Russian invaders shell their cities.
