Source: Suspilne
Maksym Levin is a Ukrainian photojournalist who has been working in the hottest spots of the Russian-Ukrainian war since 2014. During the full-scale invasion, he was the first to capture footage from the Kharkiv Ring Road—the first battles for Kharkiv. In the first week of the war, Maksym managed to work in the most dangerous areas, particularly in the Zhytomyr and Kyiv regions. He was killed during the battles for Moshchun in March 2022.
According to the findings of a preliminary investigation conducted by Ukrainian law enforcement agencies and the international organization “Reporters Without Borders,” Russian troops executed Maksym. Suspilne managed to record an exclusive interview with the head of the investigations department at “Reporters Without Borders,” who was at the scene of the crime.
Memories of Max Levin’s family and colleagues are featured in the video.
