The injured reporter, as shown in the photo of the card published by the consultant, works for Fox News. This is Benjamin Hall, a war correspondent with a history in the Middle East and Africa, wounded in the vicinity of Kiev. «Once again, I would like to address our partners: a citizen of your country was on the territory of Ukraine, carrying out the work of a journalist.
