.@nytimes is deeply saddened to learn of the death of an American journalist in Ukraine, Brent Renaud.
Brent was a talented photographer and filmmaker, but he was not on assignment for @nytimes in Ukraine.
Full statement is here. Brent's death is a terrible loss. Brave journalists like Brent take tremendous risks to bear witness and to tell the world about the devastation and suffering caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Heartbreaking:
The photo of a deadly Russian mortar attack on a fleeing family outside Kyiv shocked the world.

New US estimate of the Russian death toll in Ukraine: more than 3,000 soldiers.
Nearly 2 weeks into Putin’s invasion — Europe’s largest land war since 1945 — the fearsome image of the Russian military has been shattered.
nyti.ms/3IUsu8v Russian soldiers have been plagued by poor morale and fuel and food shortages. Troops have crossed the border with rotten MREs (meals ready to eat) that expired in 2002.
Some have surrendered and sabotaged their own vehicles to avoid fighting.

Exclusive by @jessemckinley
nyti.ms/2ZWzn4t She said Cuomo asked her about her personal life, including whether she thought age made a difference in romantic relationships, and had said he was open to relationships with women in their 20s — comments she saw as overtures to a sexual relationship. nytimes.com/2021/02/27/nyr…

Cuomo said today that governors were not responsible for sounding warnings about coming pandemics: “Where were all the experts? Where was The NY Times?”
Let’s look at just three of numerous examples from our coverage: • Jan. 26: "WUHAN, China — A top Chinese health official warned on Sunday that the spread of the dangerous new coronavirus, already extraordinarily rapid, is accelerating further."
