Direct quote from Kushnir: "The shockwave damaged the windscreen, it’s cracked. Shrapnel passed along the body of the car, but was so light that it was almost invisible. 

When the rocket hit, I thought that this is the end, it’s the end of the car. But no. It survived. And speedily took us out of there."

Details: According to Kushnir, there continues to be heavy fighting in the Donbas, and it is not easy now near Bakhmut.

Reminder: In 2022, the Pulitzer Prize jury awarded a special prize to Ukrainian journalists who are covering the war in Ukraine with courage and endurance.
