ukrainian officials say their forces are quote going on the counter attack around the capital region today. my next guest joins us from kyiv. he is an advertising executive from new york. so why is he in ukraine? he traveled all the way there to document the war on the ground and help in any way that he could. kevin richards is his name and joins me now. thank you so much. appreciate you joining us. first, can you tell us why you re in ukraine on the front lines of this war? a lot of people asked that question. i it was fairly spontaneous decision. i was watching what was going on. i was feeling very far removed from it and felt like somebody should be there that is relatable and could deliver information and really bear witness on the ground and make it more real for the people back
with kevin richards just a few days ago on this show. he is an advertising executive from new york who came to ukraine to document the war on the ground and to help in any way that he could. we asked him to shoot a video diary of what he s seen in and around kyiv. here s that video diary right now. here it is. on the front line, michael and i met up with friends of his, two brothers named sasha and demon, that s his nickname because of how fast he drives. they took us further in to deliver the flag jackets. we passed by all sorts of carnage and destruction, houses that have been blown up, buildings that had been blown up, gas stations, stores, you name it. awful, awful, awful. this is a destroyed gas station. and adjoining market. more bombs going off nearby. i can t even fathom being in here while all this was going on.
