Interview with a journalist Olha Zvonariova on being injured and working in frontline Zaporizhzhia

Olha was not a war correspondent before the full-scale invasion, but living in a frontline city amid the full-scale war completely changed the context of her work. The journalist has now made over 200 trips to the areas of hostilities and the frontline, documented the testimonies of people who fled the occupied parts of the Zaporizhzhia region at the beginning of the invasion, and worked in hazardous war conditions. After being seriously injured, Olha spent more than two months in a hospital, underwent complex surgery and rehabilitation, and now she is not only regaining her pre-injury physical form, but also trying to become stronger and learn to do things she couldn’t do before, such as running a marathon.
