National Geographic  - Stories from Ukraine's Refugees


  • StudioDM - Davide Monteleone (map)

Last week I was at Przemysl, on Polish - Ukrainian border, to document the stories of refugees fleeing from the Russian bombing.
On assignment for National Geographic, I spent several days in the company of shocked, unarmed people, most of them women and children, who had to leave everything overnight, not knowing if they will ever see again their homes and relatives.

This migratory flood has already been announced as the most intense of the last decades.
Hundreds of thousands of people already crossed that border, and no one knows how many others are to come.

A brief glimpse of the series I made can be found here on NatGeo's website, along with the stunning portraits and videos made by Anastasia Taylor-Lind, Alice Aedy, and Manuel Montesano.
