The day after the start of the offensive launched by the Russians in Donbass (Ukraine), journalist Agnès Vahramian is closer to the Ukrainian soldiers, in the Donetsk region, Tuesday April 19.

On the morning of Tuesday April 19, Russia called on Ukrainian soldiers to lay down their arms, after Moscow launched an offensive in Donbass on Monday April 18. Live from the front, in the Donetsk region (Ukraine), reporter Agnès Vahramian is as close as possible to Ukrainian soldiers, right in the middle of the trenches.

“It’s almost as a family that we dig the trenches”explains the reporter, pointing to Vitali, 19, and his father next to them, both with a shovel in their hands, forming the trenches. “We hear very regularly the positions, the exchange of fire. The Russians are about 7-10 km away. They have advanced only a few kilometers for 24 hours”explains the journalist from France Télévisions, bulletproof vest on the back.
