Yeung is one of a diverse group of female correspondents reporting from Ukraine, and it is their in-depth, empathetic, almost impressionistic emphasis on civilian life—the upheavals, the sudden loss of normalcy, and the everyday ways people persist in the darkest of circumstances—that has been defining the coverage.
Tavernise’s reporting conveyed tragic, overnight disruptions through interviews with women who had fled, many of them mothers with their children, and with office workers and screenwriters and interior designers who described “one day going to the dentist, and the next, being in a dark basement with a stranger,” Tavernise says. “They talked about doing the dishes and looking out the window and seeing tanks.
“I don’t think of myself as a war reporter,” says Fadel, who previously served as NPR’s international correspondent based in Cairo. “I just cover people…sometimes that means they’re living through some of the most traumatic things that you can imagine, and that can be anywhere,” she says. “It’s becoming clear that there isn’t one part of the world where conflict is endemic.
of four lives cut short—lying among their luggage, the children’s backpacks still strapped on—landed on the front page of, providing searing evidence that, despite its denials, Russia was flouting even the flimsiest rules of engagement and transgressing into war crimes. Ward wrestled with a heightened sense of risk when she first had her boys, four-year-old Ezra and two-year-old Caspar, with her husband, fund manager Philipp von Bernstorff. She fielded “more than a whiff of casual misogyny,” she remembers— suggestions that she’d stop traveling to war zones in favor of an in-studio position. Ward has since come to believe that motherhood adds dimension to her reporting. “Maybe we need to have more mothers covering war,” she says.
Ward makes a point of speaking publicly about the mental-health toll of conflict reporting and the fact that she sees a therapist. “It’s still a taboo in this industry, because there is a lot of bravado and macho culture,” she says. She tells younger war correspondents: “Not only is it not shameful in any way to talk to someone, it’s actually something that should be mandatory.”
