Good morning to readers. Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Some career news: I’m leaving NPR as part of the layoffs that dramatically reduced the company’s workforce.

I’ve decided to go back into Ukraine to keep reporting.

But this time, alone.

I’ll be launching a new email newsletter, ‘The Counteroffensive,’ to cover the war going forward.

There, you’ll find a direct connection to me and my reporting – whether you choose a free or paid subscription.
