Mstyslav Chernov is a Ukrainian video journalist and war correspondent for the Associated Press who reported from and finally escaped the besieged city of Mariupol. Speaking to BizNews after appearing on a panel at the World Economic Forum (WEF) 2022 titled, Ukraine: Reporting from the frontlines, a soft-spoken Chernov detailed what it was like trying to work in a war zone, with limited or no access to basic services and connectivity.
