Yesterday, April 1, after a long search near the village of Guta Mezhigorskaya in the Kiev region, the police found the dead photographer and documentary filmmaker Max Levin. There was no communication with him for almost 2 weeks. And here is the terrible news. According to Lb.ua, Max, accompanied by a serviceman Alexei Chernyshev, went to Guta Mezhigorsk on March 13 to document the consequences of the Russian occupation. They left the car and went towards the village of Moshchun. Since then, the connection with both men has disappeared.
Chernyshev’s whereabouts are still unknown.

The publication recalls his words:
Kozhen is a Ukrainian photographer to create a photo, like a war.
Max did more. Since the beginning of the invasion, many publications have received from him a link to Google Drive with pictures from the front line. They are impressive.
