Vi har med egne øjne set, hvordan Ukraines tragiske historie udvikler sig takket være det utrættelige og heroiske arbejde, som journalister, fotografer og kamerafolk udfører på steder, hvor vi andre ikke kan komme. En af dem, den polske fotograf Sławek Kaminski, har sendt os billeder, som han har taget i grænseområdet mellem Belarus og Polen, Rzeszów og Medyka-Shehyni.
I dag offentliggør vi det første af billederne fra grænseområdet mellem Polen og Ukraine. Tak for disse øjebliksbilleder.
Sławek Kamiński: Fotojournalist for Gazeta Wyborcza, vinder af flere priser og udmærkelser i prestigefyldte pressefotokonkurrencer, vinder af den store pris – årets pressefoto i konkurrencen Grand Press Photo i 2019. Hans arkiv er en fuldstændig oversigt over de politiske forandringer i Polen i de seneste 30 år. Hans arbejde er blevet offentliggjort i de fleste polske og i mange udenlandske medier og bøger. Han har også deltaget i store reklameprojekter. Hans nyhedsfotos kan ses på Wyborcza.pl og Reuters.
