the best children's channel plyusplyus st. nicholas hides a bag of gifts under the shelf and prepares to meet the children of kherson, a guest with the coming good night to you in the morning kherson region welcomes the sun, the guide says that the weather is like this here for the first time in a while outside the window burned russian equipment and the remains of the russian position at 10- and our train arrives at the kherson railway station woo- woo finally kherson, worry yourself, the director of the kherson social rehabilitation center together with volunteers are opening a children's point of indomitability of families with children today are wanted in a long line of so

many small indomitable kherson people here, no one expected to see about three hundred boys and girls, they have a wish. the only thing is that you ran out of guests and there was no one in the queue. they share with me the experienced name of the rocket video. they don't stop believing in a miracle and everyone who has gathered here is waiting for nicholas and they themselves offer to sing. and these little kherson people don't stop singing even when they hear explosions , for their safety we pass to the checkpoint of indomitability, our mykolay is a little bewildered by so many children, but he quickly orients himself , prepared and then to the most pleasant

gifts, the following numbers smile and admit that in the last 10 months, this is the second holiday for them, the first is the liberation of their native kherson, a ukrainian patriotic grandmother made you such a shawl because there was no place to buy a flag volodymyr sagaydak was among those who organized this children's point of indomitability, he is the director of the social rehabilitation center, but his pupils have already been evacuated from another house, the kid says volodymyr, fifty children were kidnapped by the russians. we don't know where they are. we don't know where they are. there are only a few children left in kherson in the regional children's hospital. there are 26 children in the regional children's

hospital . stas's mother calls them salutes , they try not to talk to the child about the war, there are good soldiers and bad soldiers, they understand it, but when all these explosions, well, we somehow make excuses that you are strong today, kherson is sparsely populated the last time i was here six years ago, today i don't recognize the city without kherson drive, today there is no safe place anywhere in kherson , explosions are constantly going off almost every hour, in recent days the russians have chosen the number one target, the center of the city of kherson has been shelled several times, you can see now the consequences of the hits, but in the place where i am now where i am, there were points of invincibility that had to be removed despite shelling and restless nights, the most important thing is that we are at home now, really at home, we feel at home i think this is the most important thing

, and one more incredible story we have ahead, about the father and mother who defended ukraine in mariupol, about their children, whom the parents managed to save, and about the miracle that still returned the mother to the children, see in the final tsn, next, the children of the sea, there is no mother, the father died, i have to be responsible for the child, the tea was very much, the story of two sisters from mariupol who were left homeless, lost their father in the war and got hope when their mother returned from captivity, you can't look at this without tears, a holiday despite the war. thank you for coming to us as carolers, the soldiers met

on the front and just the residents of the front-line cities and why did our defenders like the front kolyada so much, despite the shelling of the village, the main christmas tree of the country shone today on st. nicholas' day, today it was opened on sofia square without the traditional christmas market, but with this integral symbol of the holiday in the capital argued for a long time whether it was time for the christmas tree and the celebration in general, but still decided not to refuse. it is small compared to the previous beauties, only 12 m without bright design and illumination, but we we know for sure that it will go down in history as another symbol of the indomitability of ukrainians, like christmas trees in our other cities, and everyone celebrates the towns that opened all over ukraine despite the shelling and despite all the attempts of the russians to drive us into darkness. well, i'll just test the strength of the bond and try see everything in the direct inclusion of my colleagues, the presenter of tsn holidays, grinchuk , is currently in one of the fairy-tale towns opened

in kyiv for the holiday, and there were many disputes in social networks about whether it is worth spending money on these familiar winter entertainments that are currently being offered to the residents of kyiv and the guests of the capital, against the background of the total saving of electricity, did many people come with what mood, well, one more moment. you promised so really. we are already used to the fact that from december 19, the beginning of the winter season, when the fire pits are lit , these festive towns are opening. people are preparing for the current radial month in meeting family and friends was really like that in my life, but the war changed a lot, changed almost everything. and a lot of families are not together . jewish people who are protecting our motherland are now at the front, or at least volunteers or working a lot, they are seen less often, and

therefore the holiday is really in such a big global sense that it was under a reward, but they are ukrainians. as you can see, they are trying to preserve this important spirit of the holiday, what about this town where we we are staying, we also went here, where the christmas trees and the snow fly like that on such a day we had big problems, nothing at all here, something will work, because today kyiv was the object of another russian attack from in connection with my daughter, there are big problems, we found only one location here below. as you can see the carousel and the christmas tree, where you can hear us about the world, about the generator, we are assured that it is taken into account, you can even see the order that the christmas tree does not burn too brightly for example, the buildings behind are extinguished . that is, all the electricity costs here are agreed with the management of the various power grid companies, there are also a lot of generators. i don't know if you can hear it from here, it really sounds constantly, this is their hum that helps

to various small locations one by one to maintain lighting, that is, they somehow try to get out of this, somewhere they light something, somewhere they extinguish it, to balance it all. kyivans have already started coming here on the first day, studying this location, they try to drink some even mulled wine like the good old days. by the way, 100 109 uah. if you are interested, remember but remember what the kyivans say is important, that if we give up other traditions, if we give up completely from our celebrations , from the fact that children can be taken to the christmas tree, then somewhere in a small way, we are already enemies we won because we lost something, so somewhere for the sake of it, to hear children's laughter again, let it be for a little while, so that the children could at least a little but abstract from what is happening around, this is such a town and they are working, we haven't seen everything here yet, but i think we will tell you in more detail before the end of the issue to tell that of course the height was john will be again today

a big problem studio thank you saint problems with the army are really felt but pictures often speak louder than words thank you for this story of yours well now is a good opportunity see what's happening near the main christmas tree in the capital, tsn correspondent natalya nagorna natalochko is on the phone. the center of the capital is actually dark and our new christmas tree, which i will tell you about now, it can be said to be the brightest place , a lot of people come here because they say that there is no light at home without worrying about anxiety because they say that then it is just they will go to the subway and go home, this is really a christmas tree, although the war has been going on in our country for almost

nine years, but despite this, the christmas trees have always been bright, the full-scale war has made changes, and therefore the christmas tree is three times smaller , with much fewer lights. but look how patriotic it is in blue and yellow colors and from above we can see the trident, only about a quarter of this christmas tree is illuminated, and then there are the flags of the countries that support ukraine, and there are also pigeons, but you can see them. is the christmas tree powered by a generator during the day? but despite the fact that there are no lights there are no festivities and the generator is constantly creaking. despite this, the children, our main experts, whom we asked, were satisfied with the christmas tree. i want the war to end

very much and the christmas tree to be beautiful, yellow and blue lanterns for the pigs. in order for the christmas tree to light up, you need to sit on exercise bikes, pedal harder and only then the flashlights will light up. but despite this, someone must have tried , other people at that time led round dances and danced and they insisted that it is still important to celebrate, first of all, of course, for the children. thank you , natalochka. thank you, santa. you know, this mood of our children is really worth it for the adults to work and light the christmas trees. my colleagues natalya nagorna svyatoslava grynchuk about how the ukrainian capital does not seem dark

thank you, friends. well, if you, too, in kyiv want to pay tribute to the tradition of coming to the christmas tree on sofia square or going to one of the winter towns, it will be easier to do it, starting tomorrow they will work in the capital khreshchatyk and maidan nezalezhnosti metro stations, which were closed from the very beginning of the full-scale invasion, are working, we have been transitioning between these stations for months, and these stations have served as a place for many cultural events, as well as underground press conferences of the president of ukraine, and this saturday the selection for eurovision 20-23 the tsn film crew saw how today the maidan nezalezhnosti station was cleaned and prepared for the opening to dress the military in five thousand sets of winter clothes and the same number of berets were purchased for of the armed forces of ukraine, lutsk officials, together with the charity fund, only together, a batch of winter uniforms cost uah 47 million so that they could be felt as soon as possible. workers at two

factories worked in several shifts for production. they bought generators . at this enterprise, work is boiling almost 24 hours a day, while in one room they are cutting , in another they are already sewing. changes everything in order for our soldiers to put on military uniforms as soon as possible as soon as possible as soon as we can we work a certain part on generators in parts we adapt otherwise we change shifts horses yuliya is still thinking about her closest relatives her husband and son went to defend ukraine on the first day of the full-scale invasion of russia and two left to register at the military commissariat, the woman says that work helps her to

distract herself, although even here at the sewing machine, she is only thinking about one thing, that our boys should be like this and to tell you that they will be the first to return a batch of 1,200 sets of winter military uniforms is already being loaded and sent to the military, maybe one more child can come here to help, the uniform consists of three components. these are pants and a windproof jacket and a jacket heater. much earlier, due to power outages, it took a while, but did not stop, antigorya palace only, together with the lutsk city council, placed an order for 5,000 sets of winter uniforms and 5,000 pairs of winter military shoes, we really hope that this kind of help will at least minimally improve the conditions of the guys in the combat zone in another part of the

city for shipment. or i step on a nail or something, the sole can be punctured, and the hutsulka is not knitted like that, that's what the military call it here, the first batch of clothes and shoes will be sent to two rifle battalions, the weather conditions are exactly what you see there is always a second set of uniforms, it never hurts, and the seamstresses believe that they will soon return to their orders, they will live exquisite embroidered dresses and beautiful classic shoes for this now and work to win as much as we can, at the moment we all work as girls, they know, but no one goes home, they know what needs to be done i have to tell you. this is our front here, despite the power outage, the manufacturers hope to deliver the remaining sets

of clothes and shoes to the soldiers as soon as possible. at the front, the clergy of the orthodox church of ukraine, together with the pilgrimage center , went through hospitals, military units and even positions near the front lines, then the choir performed the famous swallow in the central square of kherson after a powerful enemy shelling, as carolers were met by soldiers on the front and simply residents of the front-line cities, a report by tsn correspondent oleksandr zagorodny kyiv mykhailivskyi zolotoverkhi cathedral and these are the best voices of the orthodox church of ukraine, the clergy, with the blessing of the metropolitan, epiphany is going to a long way to the south and east of the country, the holy fathers are singing while on the bus, everyone

has serious concerts and even vocal competitions of spiritual music behind their shoulders, but still they are worried, they are still going to perform in front of a special audience if on and this is the best hall for a performance on this trip fighters they listen and are surprised, it turns out that a carol can sound like this, it's so modern and even driving, the eyes liked the music. you're in general great, i'm honest. i didn't expect jazz fields, 100% jazz. yes, i liked it more. there will be simpler hangars, industrial buildings with one light bulb, and even one building without any light at all, the enemy is close to him, drones are just visible, our positions but even here our glorious carol sounded. with a carol in constantinople

to the ecumenical patriarch and we will ask for prayers for our victory and for peace in memory of the train to you, these are signing the flag that the priests will keep with them as relics when they were choosing the repertoire to choose some such m-m carols that are more cheerful and lively in order not to upset them, because they have a lot of sadness from this . concussion fighters, medics don't even collect the fighters, the choir starts singing just in the corridor , the doors in the wards open to everyone who can come closer, many wounded people have tears in their eyes we are very happy we don't hear it there, so everything lives a little later, and we knew there

let's sing 100% of the clergy of the orthodox church of ukraine is moving on kherson region was beaten by the enemy ukrainian villages that were once so cozy, here is smoke ahead and kherson itself is gutted, the military is warning an hour ago the enemy launched a powerful bombardment of the city, aimed a rocket at the regional state administration the attack can be repeated right there on the central square and the choir planned to perform, not a minute to think, the bus is going to the city center, here comes the administration, debris is everywhere, the building is gutted, usually on such a bicycle-loving square today not a single civilian, the people dispersed to the shelters, the clergy of the church decides, the carol should sound in kherson as well. here is the answer to the question who bombed donbas for eight years? kherson regional state administration. of the holy fathers, they are brave after all because they

came to kherson during the shelling and the listeners were several foreign television groups, the military and dozens of ukrainian rescuers say that the saints have eyes of steel nerves, if they are not afraid, they are very brave that they came to kherson and performed here, apparently it is scary in their own way, the priests simply can not come past the unfinished building but such a majestic temple of the holy spirit is still scattered inside, building material is everywhere , instruments but what kind of acoustics are there, the clergy drags out the past, lo the priests believe ukrainians will definitely build this temple to the
