    They've been doing this from the very beginning of the war. Interesting to see NYT acknowledge it though.

          Well yeah, but they were specifically sending them to the front because "All men need to do their duty."

      NYT has been coming clean on a lot of things related to Ukraine lately. Guess they're ready to drop Ukraine and move onto Israel ASAP
