I don't ask for much, but would you please consider donating to Walid Fazly and his family. He was my fixer/translator in Afghanistan when I working with the LA Times. His family was lucky enough to get out of Kabul last week, but left everything behind gofund.me/b2797b5e

Habib Farzad attended a woman's rally on 9/8 & was immediately arrested by the Taliban & tortured while in captivity at PD3. Upon release, he recalls the soldier making a cutting gesture to the neck & said to him, “We can behead you. If you continue. We will kill you for sure.”

This is from the NYT photo team, and NYT security is the first to run out the door to help - can't thank the security guys enough for all the work they do. What's happening in Irpin is horrific and clearly direct targeting of civilians trying to flee.

The ‘super blue moon’ makes its appearance in Los Angeles, Ca. A super blue moon is quite rare, occurring only once every decade or so.
