  1. Such a tragic and unnecessary loss. Maybe if the world leaders took the Geneva Convention seriously and followed through our journalists would be protected like they are supposed to be under international law. My condolences go out to his family and loved ones. I am so sorry for your loss. Sending light, love, strength and hope during this profoundly sad time.

  2. Rest in peace Mr. Renaud💔It’s so important to keep people correctly informed.

  3. Why the depressing music. We feel bad enough already! 😞 I just hate that this is happening. Thanks for sharing what you loved doing and keeping us informed. My condolences and prayers to his family and friends.

    1. it helps media companies to get more views. People feel more emotional and compelled to share the video, raising the view count and monetization. It is all about money.

  4. Article 5 specifically protects the international journalist who cover in check point areas. The world is at War!

  5. I think this pandemic has taught people the importance of multiple streams of income, unfortunately having a job doesn’t mean security rather having different investments is the real deal..

    1. I’m from the Uk 🇬🇧 I and my colleagues gave him a try and it has been good returns of our investment, Thanks Mr Donald Marshal. ..

    2. having a perfect manager like Donald Marshal has saved me alot, it’s high time I do what’s right and recommend him to everyone.

  6. Putin has to be stopped not just for Ukraine but for the world as a whole! Ukraine is just a starting point! 😢💙💛🇺🇦

  7. The wisest thing that should be on everyone’s mind currently should be invest indifferent streams of income that don’t depend on the government . Especially with the current economic crisis around the world.this is still a good time to invest in GOLD,Sliver and digital currencies(BTC,ETH..)

  8. So sad RIP in heaven. He was really handsome I think they shouldn’t take nobody near Ukraine

  9. It is sad that correspondence in a war zone don’t understand that they are required to stay out of the way.
    They should heed warnings of military personnel and that wouldn’t happen.

  10. Nice one, you genuinely are trying to show how dire things of the countries and it’s citizens. Economically and other aspects. At this time the future doesn’t look good. First thing. About solving a problem is to acknowledge it. It’s doesn’t look like the media wants to do , I hope your channel expand and bring awareness and opportunity to people.. ❤️

    1. I invested $2,500 and I made $7,450 weekly trading with her, I only trust Mrs Shelia With my investment. I am now able to send my kids to a great school in LA, all thanks to Mrs Shelia Good woman👌.
