It’s almost three months since Russian forces invaded Ukraine, changing in an instant millions of lives, and the life of Ilyas Verdiev, forever.
A married father, Ilyas is now living apart from his wife and two young sons who fled to Poland.
Today, Ilyas' life is marked by uncertainty and danger, in a Kyiv that’s been wrenched from its regular rhythm.
For almost three months, Ilyas has shared insights into life in a war zone. But what did a typical day in his life, and life in Ukraine, look like before the war?
Ukraine War Diaries uses first-person audio, recorded on the ground in Ukraine, to give an intimate day-to-day perspective of life in a war zone.
EP26 of Ukraine War Diaries was recorded using Wats App voice note.
From the producers of Sky News’ multi-award winning series – StoryCast.
