Oksana Baulina, a journalist for The Insider, died under fire in Kyiv. She was filming the destruction after Russian troops shelled the Podil district of the capital.
Another civilian was also killed, and two more people who accompanied her were wounded and hospitalized.
Before joining our media project, Oksana worked as a producer for the Anti-Corruption Foundation. After the organization was listed as an extremist organization, she had to leave Russia in order to continue reporting on Russian government corruption for The Insider.
Oksana went to Ukraine as a correspondent, she managed to send several reports from Lviv and Kyiv. The Insider expresses its deepest condolences to Oksana's family and friends.
We will continue to cover the war in Ukraine, including such Russian war crimes as indiscriminate shelling of residential areas which result in the deaths of civilians and journalists.
