Lieutenant Yulia Mykytenko’s Fight for Ukraine

Straight from the frontlines, a unique opportunity to hear first-hand accounts from a Ukrainian military commander, a veteran foreign correspondent, and their local producer/interpreter.

Journalist Lara Marlowe first interviewed Lieutenant Yulia Mykytenko in 2023 for The Irish Times in a piece on women in the Ukrainian military, describing her as one of the most extraordinary people she has interviewed in her 42-year career.

Through a series of in-depth interviews and translations by Nazar Yatsyshyn, the book How Good It Is I Have No Fear of Dying emerged, providing a rare, first-hand look into the lives of Ukrainian soldiers and the vital role of women in the fight against Russian aggression.

All three join us in London for an exclusive discussion on the frontlines of the Ukraine War.
