    Refreshing to see an article focusing on the suffering of boys and men in these sorts of wartime atrocities. Normally, articles focus on how women are raped and/or sold into sex slavery, while not at all or merely as a footnote mentioning that boys and men are systematically killed or forced to serve the attacking militia as cannon fodder.
