In a forest outside the town of Izium, Ukrainian authorities this past week made a horrific discovery: a mass grave site containing more than 440 bodies, some of which showed signs of torture, according to multiple news reports.
The bodies included soldiers, adult civilians and children, reports said. Photos of the scene, showing wooden crosses marking individual burial sites and investigators pulling bodies from the ground, are hard to look at. Being at the scene is undoubtedly far worse.
