Warning: This clip discusses rape. There are reports that Ukrainian women have been raped in front of their children, some repeatedly so, by Russian soldiers and that some attacks have even been filmed on mobile phones. On 91¸£ÀûÉç Radio 4's Woman's Hour, Emma Barnett discussed these reports coming out of Ukraine with Dr Jelke Boesten, Professor of Gender and Development from King’s College London. She explained why rape and sexual assault is used as a weapon of war. To listen to the full discussion, head to 91¸£ÀûÉç Sounds and search for the 91¸£ÀûÉç Radio 4 Woman's Hour episode from 5 April.
