Ukraine: From bylines to the frontlines
In February 2022, Yuliia Trofimova was a journalist living in Eastern Ukraine, where she’s from. With the violent escalation of the conflict with Russia, Yuliia and her colleagues in local media became war correspondents overnight.
Today, Yuliia works as a field communications officer for MSF, travelling throughout the region to raise awareness of the work of MSF’s medical, surgical and mental health teams as they provide essential care to people caught in the conflict.
On this episode of Everyday Emergency, hear Yuliia share what it's like to bear witness to the war's impact on people's health, and its impact on her.
