2/ In the above image, President Zelenskyy is seen on 4 April 2022, witnessing the aftermath of murder and torture unarmed Ukrainians civilians — including children, the elderly, and women — by Russian soldiers in Bucha.
3/ In this close-up image, we are able to see somewhat greater facial detail. In the central portion of President Zelenskyy's forehead, the juxtaposition of two superficial muscles are manifested (Photo: AFP, Anadolu Agency/Getty Images).
4/ The horizontal furrows (signifying temporary muscle contraction) in the mid-level of the central forehead are formed by active contraction of the frontalis pars medialis. These muscles are pulling upward (superiorly).
5/ The vertical furrows in the lower portion of President Zelenskyy's central forehead are formed by contractions of the depressor glabellae, depressor supercilii, and corrugator supercilii. These muscle contractions are pulling downward (inferiorly) and inward (medially).
