heidi levine, thank you.thank you very much. >> i think it's valuable in a situation like this to look at a war, look at a situation like this from as many different angles as possible. in talking to some of the photojournalists over the last three weeks, as we have been, one of the reasons we do it is to give you a sense of how seriously so many of the people who are working in this situation take what they do and how they do it and respect that they show people when they're taking photographs, when they're asking their questions. and i think you see that in heidi's work and hopefully in that conversation. >>> just ahead ukrainian refugees who now call romania home. how one city is helping those who lost almost everything. yle,s of design options. when a normal daday is anything but normal, we fit youour schedule, with our unique tub over tub process, installed in as little as a day. when high quality is the only quality that matters, we fit your standards, with a lifetime guarantee. bath fitter. it just fit

that was heidi levine, great photographer who's been doing this for some 40 years. she works for "the washington post." i think it's important not to -- we broadcast this every night, and, you know, don, you have and it's easy for these images to become wallpapers in peoples minds. they see it every day and think okay another building that's been bombed. i think it's important to step back as often as possible and point out it's not the same every day. it's people -- for each person who is killed on that day, for each loved one who suddenly now has a gaping hole in their heart and in their family that will always exist, it is the worst day imaginable. it's not just another day, and what people are going through every single day, the horror of it repeats. and the least i think we can do is keep -- keep our eyes on it and keep seeing it with fresh eyes and keep seeing it with fresh outrage because it's not something we should ever get used to. >> yeah. and i can't wait for you to meet this little 11-year-old boy, anderson. you and our audience and the world. thank you

veteran "washington post" photographer heidi levine shares with anderson cooper how those images affect deal with what you see? and that night, i mean, i literally woken at 3:00 in the morning with a nightmare. and i mean, i could not help but to imagine like, you know, when i was filing my pictures, besides documenting and witnessing what i'm witness ing in the moment, and then coming back and looking at all these images again and editing and writing captions, it really hit me beyond description. i can't. all i want to write in my caption is what if this was your grandmother? how would you feel? how do these people cope? i mean, you know, i want my audience to try to connect to my work. and imagine what if you just had an hour or even less to try to pack up what you can carry, including your children, your grandparents, or any other family members and like, you know, they don't even have time to even pack their photo albums. can you imagine just fleeing and leaving your whole family history behind, never understanding, never knowing that you may not even be able to return to your own h

photojournalist heidi levine has been documenting the war in and around kyiv for "the washington postful for your time today. i want to start by showing some photos you took around irpin where people are trying to flee. you see the damaged bridge there. if you just pause and watch, you see crutches there, a pet carrier. if you take time to look at the humanity of the photo, it's remarkable. and a series there. you've been doing this more than 30 years. you've been in iraq, syria, gaza. and yet you say yourself and when you talk to your colleagues with decades of experience covering war, they are shocked by what they are witnessing. fearful of what comes ahead. help explain. >> well, i mean, it's true. i have not met any journalist who has been working as long as i have in these -- in conflict zones and covering wars. i mean, every time i bump into somebody that i know or somebody i don't even know, we're just shocked what we're seeing is actually happening. how could this be happening in 2022? it feels like we haven't learned absolutely nothing from the -- from history. and every time

her name is heidi levine pretty joins us from kyiv in ukraine paired heidi, thank you for your time.thank you for having me. >> bill: when you call your family whether they are in israel or the united states, how do you explain to them, what you are seen day by day. >> the only one i can really talk openly about it is my mother. who has been an incredible support to me. my entire career. my mother has also called me, crying at certain points. especially the beginning of the war. that i should leave. she has done that before. but this time i think my family is the most scared they had ever been for me. even though i've been doing this for over 30 years. it is frightening for them. my son is very, very upset with me. it breaks my heart. to get him so upset. >> bill: heidi, why do you stay? >> right now, i'm in kyiv and i've been in kyiv since the war broke out. this war feels really very, very different. first of all, i would like to express my condolences to your team and the suffering on their families. also, everyone who has lost their lives. we've lost incredible journalists in the
