Ukrainecast - The Mayor of Bucha
Reflections on the horrors inflicted on the people of his city...
After weeks of reports of Russian atrocities in the region surrounding Kyiv, the mayor of Bucha speaks to us and asks: “Why did they do this to us?”
You may remember Sasha Makoviy, the mother who wrote pertinent information and contact details on the back of her two-year-old daughter in case the worst happened. We hear the latest.
And we also speak to director of the Maidan museum in Kyiv who is striving to ensure the country’s artefacts are kept safe.
Today's episode was made by Chris Flynn and Phil Marzouk. The technical director was Emma Crowe. The assistant editors were Sam Bonham and Alison Gee.
