Letters to the Editor: Times photographer Marcus Yam is in Ukraine. Readers love his work and wish him safety

To the editor: I have been looking at Times photojournalist Marcus Yam’s images from the war in Ukraine and cannot get over them.

I am a Vietnam War veteran and believe Yam’s images show a very realistic and telling story of the fighting in Ukraine. I look forward to more photos and comments from him.

I also am a second-generation Hungarian American. If I were younger and in better health, I would be there in person, giving the Ukrainians my support.

Please tell Yam to stay safe and to keep telling the real story. God bless him.

To the editor: Thank you for Yam’s excellent photographs. Those from Afghanistan and now Ukraine are both illustrative of the conflict and stirring. They add depth to the story.

Yam is a remarkable photographer, enriching the news.
