you do not need to embalm a person so that there is no risk of spreading any toxic substances, in particular through the water supply system, the body is placed in something that decomposes naturally biologically, such as a biocoffin or a special shroud, the person is placed directly in the ground without anything that leaves behind residues, such as concrete. argentinian cemeteries told

voa that they comply with all environmental standards both in terms of territory and during expansion, but in the united states there is already a growing demand for green burials. california is one of states where human composting has been legalized, the burial of cremated remains in biodegradable urns is already available in orionton as well, but so far it is not a common practice, the last such burial was in 2013, as i recall, there are currently four remains that are in section 27 in the part of ecological burials if the demand for such burials will increase for this will certainly be a place the veterans affairs administration has set aside plots in three new cemeteries for green burials they are awaiting congressional approval in many cases the marking of locations with green burials is almost non-existent and we have to guarantee that each burial place will be properly marked and

identified, so we are working on obtaining these permits . nowadays, up to 30 traditional funerals take place in the argentine national cemetery every day. it is expected that the work to expand the cemetery will continue until the beginning of 2028. kateryna lisunova veronika balderas and lesias kostyantyn golubchyk voice of america washington and that's all for today thank you for watching voice of america in ukrainian also join our pages on social networks twitter facebook instagram and youtube have a good peaceful weekend see you next week dad good evening we are from ukraine

news about a 16-year-old tigran boy from ghana who was kidnapped by the russians in berdyansk and kept. he was released from captivity and is now in freedom and is with his parents. now everything is fine with him. at the same time, the child had to really go through real horror imagine at 5 in the morning the russians broke into the house where the boy lived with his grandmother, right in front of the elderly woman, her minor grandson was brutally beaten, twisted and taken away from the house, where they took the boy and why, in principle, he was detained, the russian military did not explain for some time the relatives 16- the one-year-old tigran did not know anything at all about the fate of the boy, where he is and where to look for him. and after his release, the former human rights representative of the verkhovna rada, lyudmila denisova, shared some details on her facebook: at first, he was held in the infamous berdyansk correctional colony number 77, they interrogated there, accusing him of being

a fire adjuster, then they transported him to the police temporary detention center, where they kept him in a 1-night cell . most of the inhabitants of the occupied territories were men, women, as it turned out, even children, so imagine what terrible conditions 16-year-old tigran found himself in and what horror he experienced during his captivity at the moment, we cannot tell all the details of the boy's release to everyone. in the end , the russians did release those grenades. and what is very important is that this happened, in particular, thanks to the wide publicity in the media and social networks . their illegal detention and placement in non-free places is a gross violation of the un convention on the rights of the child, the universal

declaration of human rights and the geneva convention on protection of the civilian population during the war, and unfortunately, this gran was far from the only child kidnapped by the russians, only in our programs we have repeatedly told you about similar stories, so that in april, the russian military kidnapped and held 16-year-old vlada my beet in captivity for 90 days i wanted to clean the interrogation room where people were interrogated, people were beaten, where there were five feet of blood, where there were bandages, there were bandages, well, there were cotton balls with blood, i still remember this picture when i look at the interrogation room on the left hangs a completely beaten man on the wires. and on the right sits a russian military man who calmly recorded his ego and as if nothing had happened, and you know the smell of a wet rag

soaked in blood. i can still feel it. we also told you about the story of 17 -year-old andrii kachanovsky, this guy was kidnapped by the russians in the mykolaiv region and he stayed in captivity for more than a month, repent here, they put on handcuffs, they left on the way, they gave things to them, they quickly handcuffed them, now they turned their handcuffs on the car were thrown like a sack of potatoes, luckily all these children managed to be released from captivity and what is important to a large extent thanks to publicity and public resonance , it is very important not to silence such stories and to draw attention to them in every possible way, so i am appealing to everyone who is watching us now if you suddenly know about similar cases of child abduction by russians and minors being held captive, do not delay and immediately contact the police and the hotline of the child tracing service at the short number 116 000 or write to the chat bot of the child tracing service at

telegram and at the very end, as always, i ask you to go to the website of the children's search service, many more boys and girls are wanted and we hope that with your help we will be able to find them, so if you recognize one of them, please notify us on our hotline at with the number 116,000, calls from all mobile operators are free. also, we are very dangerous here. there are now police representatives who confirm the resident's ownership, and then only we enter the apartments on the first floor. there is a ladder higher up.

already the crane, now all the residents live in the village, for a week the house was empty after the russian attack, looters tried to get here, we were there, but there is nothing for these people , persons without a permanent residence are prohibited, that is, they tried to enter the house, we drove them away, they survived put in bags and boxes that morning taras was supposed to be at home but was delayed on a business trip, it was he who saved his wife and son and managed to send them abroad even at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, things that they they loved now, wrapped in a blanket, in the open air, and

the man still does not lose heart. he will not hear from his relatives again, where to live, then the district administration will decide next week, the residents were invited to a meeting, he will miss the house he loved and his neighbors, arielbertovych confesses and about the russians, he has left only one word terrorists of course someone polina spatenko roman shcherbakov victor zelenkov program windows stb marathon the only news in shevchenko park in the center of kyiv eliminated the consequences of a recent enemy missile attack video was released by the mayor of the capital vitaliy klitschko the eruption on the children's playground that was formed and after being hit by russian rockets was covered in its place is a children's

swing, as it was until october 10. i will remind you that as a result of the bombing of the center of kyiv on that day, one of the rockets hit the children's playground and the impact formed a sinkhole several meters deep as a result of a massive strike that day in kyiv killed six civilians, more than 50 people were injured, collected more than a hundred thousand hryvnias for the armed forces while playing checkers, we told the story about the 11-year-old world champion in checkers valeria yezhova inside this summer and then she just started playing checkers in the open air in order to collect money to help the ukrainian army, now the girl is already holding whole tournaments in which she plays with many opponents at the same time . the main rule lost the donation, it's a shame , it's the second time we met with the young chess player alina matviychuk, five chess boards behind them on one side,

5 players dry their heads over the next moves , everyone has one rival, a young chess player, valeriya yezhova , remembers some positions, some where, well, a lot checkers, i'm just running around, watching, yes , yes, yes, and i'm walking. 11-year-old valeria, world champion in checkers, absolute champion of europe of ukraine and three-time champion of kyiv, has been fond of checkers for the fourth year and this summer she decided with her abilities to help the ukrainian army, we already talked about it in july. what kind of desire do you have to help? well, i think that all ukrainians want it now. i took a checkers board and sat down to play just under the supermarket. the scheme is the same, everyone who loses will donate to the army for these almost four months, until we saw valeria, she already managed

to collect more than uah 134,000 in this way, all the money is transferred to charitable funds for the needs of the armed forces how quickly she maneuvers between the chessboards , the volunteer iryna is watching, she says to the player in shock because of her dexterity, because she will play next, i even think that i will lose right from the first moves, but i will try now i will try to play, although the woman sits down at the table, the chess player runs several rounds and already the final iryna is going to lose your match without despair , i don't know, for at least a minute, you know, i had great pleasure, i have such a positive attitude. life, life goes on like this says mom shashistskyi family strives to spread the very idea of ​​charity thanks to the cause you love and back in

july when everything was just starting, valeria's mom told me that she would like to launch a hedgehog all over ukraine for him for a minillera it would be very wonderful we have a lot of talented and capable children, and that's how it happened. dozens of children all over the country, even abroad, were inspired by valeria's case and started their own. even from switzerland, i was sent pictures of children who are now in ukraine, they didn't see lera either and started playing there without collecting funds, meanwhile the tournament was already over, everyone started to disperse when a mysterious man came behind one of the game boards, a member of the ukrainian draft team, a master of sports in checker compositions, and about it until the end of the game of checkers and so on does not know, although the man in the game gives out professional moves, the game lasts for 20 minutes , and in the end, a friendly draw was taken very well , mrs. valeria knows the positions, she understands, analyzes

if we have uhu, such a promising youth, then i calm checkers and with your signature, you are on the right path, support our armed forces and believe that if we all go out together as a group, they will speed up our victory about good checkers books, the girl always dreams and she also says, besides, she dreams of what she would like to play checkers with the president or the mayor this is a dream alina matviychuk volodymyr kovalenko program windows stb the only news at the moment is all the news but the only thing is the only marathon continues every new day brings us closer to victory so we keep

fighting and believe in the armed forces of ukraine stay with us tell me honestly how are you how are you if i'm being honest it's not the best period in my life at the beginning of the war i became very anxious and i don't trust people i check 10 times they closed the door i wake up very often in the middle of the night i cry every day tears just help you should be afraid to be ashamed. next time, try again like this from the cross of the palm, hooking the thumbs so that they resemble a butterfly, the butts of the palm to the chest, and alternately rhythmically tap yourself on the collarbones due to internal vibration, you will hear sounds as if loud the heartbeat will calm you down, continue this exercise until i feel that my breathing has evened out, add this

congratulations. my name is vadym karpiak and today we have time for another big interview, even if the word economy makes you want to yawn and you think it doesn't concern you, i will disappoint you the economy concerns everyone, if you are not interested in it, it is still interested in you. therefore, we will devote the next 40 minutes to how the ukrainian economy is going to survive in these conditions of the energy crisis and in the conditions of war, and we will talk about this with the first vice prime minister minister and minister of economy yulia svyridenko ms. yulia vitayu thank you for agreeing to this conversation and let 's obviously start with the energy crisis because it is now the most important thing, not only in my opinion, according to the president, 30% of ukrainian power plants in days 10 russian attacks were destroyed. and in general, there is a

risk of disabling the entire energy system of ukraine. this is a serious blow not only to the energy system, but also to the economy. do you have an understanding of how this energy crisis is affecting our economy now and will continue to affect it? i think we should start because the russians are losing on the military front, and it is clear that they are looking for opportunities, how to put pressure on the rear, how to put pressure on our economy, how to continue this policy, where inter-industrialization because we understand that you are absolutely right in that the economy of ukraine is on the other side, we take the chemical industry, metallurgy, very much depending on energy carriers in the numbers of 30%

, that the supply of energy to populated areas and the state emergency service are our new heroes in that fact, but the national bank has released his new forecast and according to his forecast, our gdp as a result of the war this year is about 32%

from the beginning of the year, this is a third of the economy, this is a lot, but this forecast, as i understand it, has begun to be calculated, and even before massive strikes on the power system, according to your estimates, it will be necessary review this forecast, that is, these massive blows will increase our gdp losses, have we already learned to work with this, you know, if at all, to characterize the economy of ukraine in this period , then we, if we choose the right word. but this is certainly not the fragility of the economy as a whole, and we really learned and we have really adapted and by the end of the year our macroeconomic forecast is falling, it coincides with the forecast of the world bank, which says that we will fall by -30%. by the way, at the beginning of the war , there were more pessimistic forecasts of the indust-35 -37%. that is, i want to say that here and the fact

of business adaptation to new realities and the fact of the opening of the corridor for the export of grain, all this in general in general has a positive effect on what we still think what is the right -30 is a dance camp with which we will end the year friend the world bank predicts that we will fall by 35% this year, and russia, for example, according to their estimates, well, about 4.5%. there 8 times, that is, there is such a ukrainian saying, you know, while the fat will lose weight, the thin will die. that is, it is precisely about the ukrainian economy and pro-russian sanctions are working, but still the stock of the russian economy is greater and how do you look at it, but they are not working enough in the absolute right. and we also analyze the figures of the decline of the ukrainian economy compared to the figures of the decline of the russian economy and we can say with absolute certainty that we have our second front the economy

is chemical and it is extremely important for us that we get a mogu victory on this economic front victory in our economic growth in economic recovery and uh regarding the sanction i we we analyzed the eighth package of sanctions and we insist on that and with our partners we continue to say that there is iron ore, cast iron, general fertilizers, of course, naftogaz, it should be a full load of all the items exported by russia, where they have the opportunity to earn income and, of course, finance the war in ukraine should be disarmed, so you are absolutely right, it is important for us to continue this sanctions pressure. i think that there are no other tools that can put pressure on the russian economy today. from this side, what we have to do is to further recover and promote business development
