I watched Civil War yesterday and even though I generally knew what their job is I was surprised that they were actually in the very middle of the fighting, tagging right behind the soldiers and taking pictures. Why does either side of the conflict just lets them be, especially the side that might be ‘in the wrong’, knowing that they would report on their atrocities?

There was a video I remember seeing a few weeks after Russia started it’s invasion of Ukraine, where a car full of journalists was driving though a checkpoint. “For some reason” the Russians started shooting at them, and if I remember correctly one or two of them were killed, while the video showed three more running away. I think one of the 3 got shot in the leg, so he needed help running.
They aren’t supposed to get shot at or killed, but at the same time, it’s war and there will be innocents killed. There’s also no concrete repercussions for the people that do shoot at them.
