Mourners gathered at a church in Kyiv on Monday to honor two Ukrainian journalists killed last week when a Russian drone struck their car in eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk region.
War correspondent Olena Hubanova, who worked under the pseudonym Alyona Gramova, and cameraman Yevhen Karmazin were killed on Thursday by a Russian Lancet drone in Kramatorsk, around 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the front line. Another reporter who was part of the team was wounded.
It was the latest deadly attack on journalists covering the war in Ukraine. In a similar strike earlier this month, French photojournalist Antoni Lallican was killed and Ukrainian reporter Grigoriy Ivanchenko was wounded. Ivanchenko later had a leg amputated.
The growing reach of drones — now extending more than 20 kilometers from the front line — has made reporting increasingly perilous.
