A journalist of the Freedom TV channel Olena Hramova (Hubanova) and a cameraman Yevhen Karmazin were killed in Kramatorsk as a result of a strike by a russian Lancet UAV. It was reported by the Donetsk Regional State Administration.
"From the first days of the full-scale invasion of Russia, they covered the situation in the region, told the truth about enemy crimes, the evacuation of civilians, and the stories of our defenders. They worked in the hottest spots of the Donetsk Region and were always the first to arrive. It is hard to believe that this could have happened to them... This is a heavy loss for the region and all of us," the Regional State Administration said.
