1/ List of journalists killed since start of russia’s full-scale aggression (UPDATE)
As of October 23, 2025, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion by the russian federation of the territory of Ukraine, the occupiers had killed at least 135 media workers
2/ According to the verified data provided by the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine (NUJU) and the International Federation of Journalists, ifj.org/fileadmin/user…
among those killed were 21 media persons who were performing their professional duties;
- 10 media workers registered as civilian victims, and 104 media representatives mobilized for the defense of Ukraine to the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
“If russia had not unleashed this shameful war, all our colleagues, journalists, and media workers could continue to work successfully, create quality information content for their audience, write articles, make reports, and shoot TV stories and documentaries.
They could benefit people and contribute to Ukrainian and world culture,” says NUJU President Sergiy Tomilenko.
“But the aggressor state decided they should die leaving their families in severe grief, people uninformed, deceived by russian propaganda and intimidated.”
3/ "Citizen media workers killed while performing professional duties:
1. Ihor Hudenko, a Ukrainian photographer and video blogger, disappeared during shelling in Kharkiv on February 26, 2022. His body was found on February 27, 2022. According to the conclusion of the doctors, his death was not violent.
2. Yevhen Sakun, a Ukrainian photojournalist for the LIVE publication and a correspondent for EFE, was killed in a missile attack on the Kyiv TV tower on March 1, 2022.
3. Brent Anthony Renaud, an American journalist/former correspondent for The New York Times/reporter for Time/documentarian/ Peabody Award winner, was shot dead by russian soldiers at a checkpoint in Irpin on March 13, 2022.
4. Maksym Levin, a Ukrainian photojournalist a correspondent for LB.ua and other publications, went missing on March 13, 2022. He was found dead near the village of Huta-Mezhyhirska, Kyiv Region, on April 1, 2022. An investigation conducted by Reporters Without Borders showed that the journalist had been tortured and executed.
2/ The leader of the so-called "DPR" Denis Pushilin showed a video allegedly made in the Ukrainian, already surrounded Pokrovsk . obozrevatel.com/ukr/location/u…
The collaborator and traitor spoke about the "difficult situation", despite which the Russian occupiers are allegedly "moving forward" , etc.
In turn, a journalist from the German publication Bild, a well-known military analyst Julian Röpke, geolocated Pushilin's video. x.com/JulianRoepcke/…
3/ It turned out that the leader of the "DPR" militants is actually in Ocheretino , which is 32 kilometers from Pokrovsk.
"Russia announces the almost complete occupation of Pokrovsk;
- Putin even invites journalists there.
As proof, Putin's appointed leader of the "DPR" makes a message supposedly "from Pokrovsk." But there is a small flaw:
- the video was shot 32 km east of the city ," the German notes.😇
2/ A confidential survey commissioned by the Kremlin has found that a large majority of Russians are weary of the war and increasingly critical of their living conditions.
The findings, shared with regional officials ahead of the 2026 elections, reveal deep exhaustion across the country.
According to Vot Tak, which cited the study reported by Dialog.ua, more than 80 percent of respondents said they felt tired of what Moscow still calls its “special military operation.”
In the data presented by Alexander Kharichev, head of the Presidential Directorate for Monitoring and Analysis of Social Processes, 56 percent of Russians described themselves as “very tired,” and 27 percent as “somewhat tired.”
Compared with last year, those expressing deep fatigue rose by nine points, and partial fatigue by six
3/ "Economic strain deepens"
Sociologists involved in the study noted that public sentiment has worsened since late 2024. They attributed the shift to heavy battlefield losses, inflation, falling wages and new taxes.
“Russians generally assess the current situation extremely negatively,” the report stated.
Researchers said the number of citizens who believe their financial situation has deteriorated is now the highest since the invasion began.
In October 2025, for every person reporting a slight improvement, three said their situation had worsened.
2/ Russian military personnel have been reporting summary executions since the first year of their invasion of Ukraine. Back then, soldiers were shot on the spot verstka.media/vnesudebnie_ra…
for refusing to storm a fortress or for drinking in the trenches.
By 2025, executions and torture in the army had become more sophisticated, increasingly driven by personal feuds between soldiers and commanders and refusal to pay quitrent to their superiors.
(The names and call signs of some characters in the text have been changed for security reasons.)
"A boy from my platoon was simply beaten to death on the floor.
Because he was drinking vodka after a combat mission.
- So, we spent a month at the front without communication, without food, and almost all 200 of us (were killed)." ×or 300 (wounded) ×"We drank water from puddles, fucking, slept in water and shit.
And then we went out to rest, all grown men, well, drank a little, and they started scolding us like some kind of puppies.
- Well, the kid went nuts."
Then, as a soldier with the call sign "Kurgan" tells Verstka, commanders "Kemer" and "Dudka" began beating his comrade and smashed his head against a concrete slab.
Then they threw him into a pit. "He was already dying there, something was leaking from his head, foam was coming out of his mouth, he was convulsing. "Shark" then told them to shoot him," Kurgan says.
