| TOP OF THE AGENDA | | Captured Ukrainian-born soldiers on why they fought for Russia | | |  | | When Ukraine captures its own citizens on the battlefield, they are put on trial for treason and sent to PoW camps. | | Not all the soldiers fighting on behalf of Moscow in its war with Kyiv are Russian - some are Ukrainian. During a visit to a prisoner of war (PoW) camp in western Ukraine, our correspondent Sarah Rainsford spoke to the men who went to war with their own country. Many, like Anton, are from eastern Ukraine and grew up under occupation. "I consider myself Russian," he says. "A country means nothing, it's all about nationality." Despite being captured, he doesn't regret his choices. At the camp, Ukraine is making what feels like a "half-hearted" effort to "re-educate" the PoWs, Sarah writes. Instead, the real focus for Kyiv is on using them in prisoner swaps. But when it comes to negotiating, the Ukrainians "are a low priority for Russia", she says. | | | | | | | | |

| YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED | | Lindsay Clancy's trial puts postpartum psychosis in the spotlight | | |  | | Experts say it's not entirely clear what causes postpartum psychosis. Credit: Reuters | | For almost a month, the trial of Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts mother who killed her three children, has gripped the US. Her defence team argues that at the time of the deaths in January 2023, Clancy was mentally unwell and couldn't understand the consequences of her actions. The case has opened up a dialogue about the mental health complications women can experience after giving birth. | | | | | | Ana Faguy, digital journalist | | | | What's happened in the trial so far? | | Clancy admits she carried out the killings but has pleaded not guilty to murder charges. Her defence argues she was suffering from hallucinations and delusions that began after the birth of her third child. Prosecutors allege she made a calculated decision to intentionally kill Cora, five, Dawson, three and Callan, who was eight months. | | What is postpartum psychosis? | | The rare condition is considered a medical emergency, and can see patients experience mania, depression or a mixture of both. They also endure psychotic symptoms, such as hearing voices, and in uncommon, severe cases, they may harm or kill themselves or other people. | | What are the issues surrounding it? | | The major barrier standing in the way of awareness and better treatment of the illness in the US is that it's not included in the mental health handbook published by the American Psychiatric Association, experts say. Without a mention there, the illness does not get discussed in medical school textbooks, students do not learn about it, and people don't talk about it much, says Veerle Bergink, a professor of psychiatry and the director of the Mount Sinai Women's Mental Health Center. However, the illness is treatable and patients do recover. | | | | | | | | | | |
