(FILES) French conflict photojournalist Patrick Chauvel poses during a photo session in Paris on October 13, 2026. For 56 years, he has covered almost every war, from Vietnam to Ukraine: French photojournalist Patrick Chauvel has lived "1,000 lives" and risked his own skin, driven by the ambition to bear witness. "So that we never again hear people say, 'We didn't know,'" he explains. At 77, he has not put away his camera; just recently, he returned to Ukraine—his second trip there this year. "I’ll keep going as long as my body holds up, as long as I can run and see," he told AFP, just days before the release on October 21, 2026, of his memoir, "Eclats de guerre" ("Fragments of War").
