War Correspondents-2. 'Birdman' and 'Good Girl' Olya

What’s it like to chronicle life under constant shelling?

War correspondents live in trenches whilst risking their lives, to reveal the harsh reality of the most dangerous zones in Donbass. Despite lacking military education, they escape the perils of shelling and drones' crosshairs. Olga Kurlaeva, a correspondent from Lugansk, was the first to report the start of the special military operation. Thus, an information war was waged against Olga. Despite facing countless death threats, the correspondent fearlessly ventures to the frontlines day after day, reporting from the scene without faltering. What keeps Olga and other reporters going?
