I spent 48 hours in Kherson, a city in southern Ukraine under relentless siege from drones. Civilians are being targeted non-stop, and I went on the ground to uncover how and why this is happening. During my time there, I was chased and possibly tracked by drones—though it’s not fully confirmed. It seems that 4G and 5G towers along the south of the Dnipro River are being used to gather data from civilians’ phones, allowing Russian forces to track their IP addresses and geolocation. The only cover for civilians is the leaves on the trees, but with fall approaching, even that safety is fading.

This is my first self-funded documentary exploring the horrors happening in Kherson.
