4:44 am
back and keith, electrician, alexander, is about to start his 12 hour shift. you've got every one has their own frontline, for some are directly on the front line facing the enemy with a machine gun is what we have our own frontline here with its own challenges. and right now i'm in the right place. i don't know about the future. maybe i'll take up arms to at some stage to defend my country. no one can rule that out right now on the look, a shout that said no neighbor kusha anecdote. let us lic, sanders frontline, is the battle to keep the capital supplied with electricity. so since october power stations have been under attack, it's his job to prevent lengthy power outages and keith gillard right now we have 50 to 60 percent of the power that would normally be available. 35 percent of that is set aside for critical infrastructure in
4:45 am
a day before from 9 am. each day industry is operating at full capacity. so then more households have to go without electricity whatsoever because industry has to keep going so that there is bread. pasta tanks, if they're even produce in our country, who knows i owe, like sander works with konstantin for the past 6 years. they've been a team traveling from one electricity sub station to another and keeping that local power grid, running smoothly. but their job has taken on a whole new significance since the start of the war. they control the flow of electricity to ensure no one is without power completely. although everyone has to do without for a few hours each day. it's a nerve wracking job. they're constantly repairing what the russian attacks have destroyed. so electricians are now often seen as heroes and ukraine. just with do
4:46 am
you sense that in your daily work was labeled? do says people have started treating us with more respect because they understand now how important we are before the war. we were basically invisible, that tara was just always there. and if there was a power cut, everyone got upset, wondering what we were playing and fire. now i think there are more understanding and respect us, at least i hope they do. little dominion with nor citizen us is municipal. all young ladies, as it misses the neighbors, have even started questioning. they used to think were just some random guy, because meanwhile, the cultural front is getting ready to go on stage. despite the sirens, the missile attacks and sub 0 temperatures in the hall, florida and the other musicians have decided to perform for the soldiers. including anton, he's with a battalion, an eastern ukraine, a year ago he was an i t specialist. now, he's a soldier with a v school or joining the army is emotionally much easier than remaining
4:47 am
a civilian. if you're a civilian, you're constantly thinking about what you can do. do you donate money? how practically run away? there are numerous options. joining the army is very easy. you turn up and all your questions are gone. you know exactly what you have to do, but i just got a little bit. would you better than i do? you have a wife and children. how old are your children? i have a 5 year old daughter. you bookstore. what questions does she ask you when you're at home from work? is that long? are you staying? you're leaving is probably the hardest part from him. and tom tells me he actually left his family before he needed to because he was afraid if he stayed longer, it would be even harder to say good bye or what happened to him like breaks down then there's systemic contradiction.
4:48 am
my name civilized. let us go up to the society supplies. that was good. and i was held in place of a man was and he's almost everyone here in this hall has been on the front line. and after a few days off at home, they'll be going back there for us, we find ourselves soon. these men will be returning to the fiercely contested city of buck mood. isn't it? true, ross was much worse. a person may end up believing in anything, the very place where the love of ladas life was killed just a few months ago. the model number, can you put into words what you felt when you heard that news or the fair, those know no music but you can express it in music. yes. yes. and i was in the theatre when it

4:50 am
4:51 am
but also for the others. who did we become more sentimental? yes, i can hear a song and immediately start crying ross that wouldn't have happened before was that this little but i don't think that's a bad thing. oh, more for robert young, go much. it's if one ah, next we travel to another location that i can't reveal out, or it either because soldiers come here to receive psychological support and the aim is to treat symptoms of battlefield trauma to stop them getting worse, are allowed than the li since last summer. alexander has offered a one week therapy program for soldiers, but judy got a why he offers various treatments. but the main focus is on conversational therapy with kirkwood, with myrtle. how do you manage to convince the soldiers to take part of what they are, but he puts from ortho, regardless. oh gosh,
