Russians accused of raping Ukraine women

 The Sun:

RUSSIAN troops have been accused of raping "numerous" women as they rampage through Ukrainian cities.

As the war rages on for a ninth day, Ukraine's foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba alleged there have been reports of Putin's soldiers sexually assaulting Ukrainian women.

He told a briefing at Chatham House: "We have numerous cases of, unfortunately, when Russian soldiers rape women in the Ukrainian cities."

Kuleba backed a call for the creation of a special tribunal to punish Moscow's aggression as Russia's hostility escalates beyond bombing.

Kuleba said international law "is the only tool of civilisation that is available to us to make sure that in the end, eventually, all those who made this war possible will be brought to justice".

It comes as human rights organisations last week warned sexual violence against Ukrainian women would likely increase as a result of the conflict.

There is more.

If true, either the Russians have lost control of their troops or it is part of a terrorism agenda.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
