Her callsign is Velo. She was a 22-year-old student journalist in Norway. Now she’s a combat medic on Ukraine’s front line.
This is a raw interview — uncut, different from our usual edited field reports. Velo explains why she came to Ukraine, how she became a medic in the Azov International Battalion, and what it means to fight for a country that isn’t her own. She talks about family tensions, everyday risks, life with her team (and her 7 cats), and what she’s learned about herself since the war began.
