Foreign Correspondent on ABC and ABC iview S35E2 – In the three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine hundreds of thousands of soldiers have died.
The number of soldiers wounded on both sides is far greater. Rescuing and treating the injured, often in extreme conditions, is a dangerous and sometimes deadly assignment.
With exclusive access to the Ukrainian medics – many of whom are volunteers – this film shows how they are working tirelessly to save and repair the lives of soldiers wounded in combat. Under the bombs, in the trenches and in the operating theatres of dilapidated field hospitals, doctors, nurses and paramedics are regularly confronted with injuries they’ve never experienced.
This episode of Foreign Correspondent is an immersion into their world, a first-hand account of the impact of war and the determination by those to do whatever it takes to fight for the country they love.
