Meet The Volunteers Running Into A War Zone To Rescue Civilians - a podcast by NPR

A group of volunteers is braving artillery barrages to evacuate residents from towns and cities in Ukraine's Donbas region, including Bakhmut, the epicenter of fighting in the eastern part of the country.

NPR's Frank Langfitt speaks with two rescuers, Kuba Stasiak, 29, a former journalist from Poland, and Andre West, 22, from Germany, who document their rescues on Instagram

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
