Yesterday, he shared a video of him in an ambulance where he explained that they were doing a patient extraction from the frontlines.
“Last night was rough, I was scared and probably shat myself. I kept counting the hours for the night to pass and prayed we made it out,” Rossignaud wrote on his Facebook page.
“MOAS had a multiple patient extraction close to Bakhmut, driving for hours in pitch black conditions at 3.30am close to Russian army positions. It was too close for comfort and just glad we made it back,” the photojournalist added.
Rossignaud added how these medical extractions are usually done during the night due to Russian drones in the area.
Russia launched another major attack on Kyiv where Moscow’s forces unleashed 236 drones and missiles striking 15 regions and killing at least seven people.
