How Ukrainians are coping with new, more deadly Russian attacks
Zanny Minton Beddoes, The Economist's editor in chief , just visited Ukraine. She says, despite all its drone weaponry, Kyiv is under extraordinary bombardment, as Russia tries to make it unlivable.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets frame the story around Russian strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and the toll in and around Kyiv, with Channel 4 News and Al Jazeera both mentioning deaths in the capital and surrounding area. Channel 4 News is the most specific about blackouts and says at least three people were killed in Kyiv, including a 14-year-old child, while Al Jazeera says city officials reported three killed in the capital and emergency services reported a child killed in the surrounding region. NPR’s extract is the least direct and stands out for broadening the coverage to how Ukrainians are coping, rather than focusing on the immediate attack details.
