The Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council does not possess information on the whereabouts of British journalist Graham Phillips contributing his reports to the Russian international television network Russia Today (RT).
“We don’t have any information concerning this journalist,” National
Security and Defense Council spokesman Andriy Lysenko said at a news
conference in Kyiv on Wednesday.
“Ukrainian military servicemen don’t capture journalists. Quite the
contrary, they create conditions for their work,” Lysenko said.
The RT management had said earlier on Wednesday, July 23 that it was trying to
find out Phillips’s location. The last time the TV station had contact
with Phillips was in the early hours of Wednesday, while he was working
in the Donetsk airport area, it said.
