When you hear the sirens, what do you do? Run for the nearest air-raid shelter that you’ve previously located? Hide in the bathroom? Down your pint because there’s no point in dying sober?  Opsec as a humanitarian volunteer in Ukraine very much depends upon your personal risk appetite.

This talk is about an active warzone, and will contain discussions of serious injury and death
