The people of Ukraine are enduring a ‘Living Hell,’ UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said, as the shelling of multiple cities and towns continues. ‘The war is going nowhere, fast, he stated, describing it as unwinnable.’ Ten million people have now fled their homes in Ukraine because of the Russian invasion, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees says. As well as the 3.5 million who have left for neighboring countries, another estimated 6.5 million people are thought to be displaced inside the war-torn country itself. Continuing the fighting, Mr. Guterres said, was ‘morally unacceptable, politically indefensible and militarily nonsensical… Sooner or later, it will have to move from the battlefield to the peace table. This is inevitable. The only question is: How many more lives must be lost?’ Welcome to ‘WAR IS HELL’

Zuma’s Managing Editor Jim Colton is interviewed by PopPhoto on his decades of Olympic coverage and what it takes to get the best images to the masses.
“I look at images that come in that are ingested to the ZUMA database, which is roughly, on an average day somewhere between 40,000 and 50,000 images. During the Olympics, it’s easily twice, maybe three times that. I could look up just what we’ve ingested in the last 24 hours and it would be well over 100,000 images, because of the Olympics.” Jim Colton speaking to Jeff Carlson for PopPhoto Magazine.
