An AP team of Ukrainian journalists trapped in the besieged city of Mariupol struggle to continue their work documenting atrocities of the Russian invasion.

Someone once told me, "Wars don't start with explosions..." " They start with silence."
Russians have entered the city.
The war has begun, and we have to tell its story.
This is painful to watch.
But it must be painful to watch.
If the world saw everything that happened in Mariupol, it would give at least some meaning to this horror.
My brain will desperately want to forget all this.
But the camera will not let it happen.
