Saxon cameraman films horrors of war in Ukraine

Gerald Gerber, a cameraman from Saxony, films reports on war victims in Ukraine for MDR and ZDF. Alongside footage of industrial climbers in Plauen, he ventures into hazardous areas where drones and weapons shape daily life. The question arises why he repeatedly takes this risk.

Gerald Gerber is an experienced cameraman from Saxony who works for public broadcasters. He produces content for Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk (MDR) and Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen (ZDF). In Germany, he films industrial climbers in Plauen, a city in Saxony.

His work extends to Ukraine, where he documents the horrors of the ongoing war. Gerber enters areas where drones and weapons dictate people's daily lives. There, he films war victims and captures the conflict's impacts.

Despite the high risks, Gerber returns to these crisis zones repeatedly. His reporting highlights the humanitarian consequences of the war, though specific incidents or timelines are not detailed in the sources. This commitment underscores the challenges faced by journalists in conflict areas.
