Ukraine War Stories: What Happened Next?

BBC Radio 4 - File on 4, Ukraine War Stories: What Happened Next?

Stories from civilians in war-torn Ukraine.

What happened to the civilians from Ukraine who told their stories to File on 4 when the war started?

In March 2022, File on 4 told the stories of six people whose lives were changed forever by war in Ukraine.
They were not soldiers, activists or politicians. They were civilians, not used to war or how to deal with it.
They kept audio diaries that told a raw truth about loss, hope and even love.
Some packed up and left with their children while others remained in the eye of the storm.
Among them, a language teacher from Mariupol who did not know if her parents were still alive – and a model who was caught up in shelling in Chernihiv.
But what’s happened to them since?
File on 4 tries to trace them, to discover how their lives have changed in four months of war.
