Overview: Why did he go to Ukraine? And would you do the same?
Those are two of the questions that people are mostly likely to have asked themselves, and each other, after they heard about the humanitarian mission of New Zealand scientist Dr Andrew Bagshaw. Andrew left the safety of his home in Christchurch in April 2022 to volunteer in different parts of Ukraine, most notably in the dangerous eastern areas of the Donbas, with its now-notorious urban battlefields Soledar and Bakhmut. Soledar, he said when he got there, was ‘hell’. And it was in that hell on Earth that Andrew and a British colleague, Chris Parry, lost their lives in January 2023. They were attempting a civilian evacuation, one of hundreds Andrew had done in that region, when the Russians took control of Soledar.
