prisoners who remained alive, the secret mail of the state and why they became so popular in the conditions of war and blackout, tsn witnessed how state secrets are transferred russia with two conditions, ukrainians are determined when christ was born, we praise him, we congratulate everyone who celebrates christmas according to the gregorian calendar, but how does ukraine celebrate the first christmas during the war we will talk further , but first the news from the front on the 305th day of the great war more than a hundred occupiers and from the wagner pvc were destroyed in the luhansk region by the fighters of the 54th separate mechanized brigade, and this is only for day, the enemies threw the wagnerites to storm our positions for several days in a row, the land and people burned, but our persistent occupiers withdrew, leaving behind hundreds of corpses and dozens of

wounded two wagnerites, one of whom turned out to be a criminal authority, managed to capture and for a meter of ukrainian land, in the literal sense, the wagnerites are advancing in waves , as in the second world war, they do not protect them for people. they simply threw them for meat. we even had them take our position, we simply them they were squeezed out by a tank, they were purchased. in the trenches , they attack us in groups of 10 people , a group attacks them with artillery, we knock out 200-300 there, the second group enters, but they never brought theirs out, roughly speaking, they are here, after landing in them, there are a lot of them, they stormed purely with people in them the support was such that the artillery of the occupiers had the same tactics

: approach our fortifications in small groups, the first streamers were disposed of by the guys from the 54th brigade by the corpses and the others would already lead their wounded, but they crawled not far away, and so several times they were responsible of our unit, we are in the majority of 90 kgners, the second helmets are already on the way, regular troops and ahmed extreme attacks of the enemy on the positions of, let’s say, our mechanized company of mine, it was two gangs in the literal sense of the word, it was a number from a thousand to 22 people , these positions of ours for in the last days, most of the land around us was destroyed by enemy artillery, landing opposite in the tunnels of the occupiers, because they continue already at short distances, it reaches hand-to-hand combat, which is at least 1 hundred wagnerians in our luhansk region the defenders were able to stop the advance of the enemy assault groups - this is one of them, or rather what remained, they tried to approach our fortifications, but thanks to the coordination of our defenders, they were all destroyed. this is how our

guys fought back the positions on the stamp simply flew into the enemy fortifications and destroyed the wagnerites, our stormtroopers occupied enemy trenches from eight dozen fresh pvkshniks who came for reinforcements from the flint only these two remained alive, what are we to do with us, well, he is the 300th of the caliph in my opinion yes, he is right informs that it is not 300's, not 200's, no one is evacuating, everything remains in place at the point, everything. well, i understood that, well , only he stays in, he prays, and everything is half tajik, half kalma, he served time in mordovian camps for 20 years, he was in the zone and remained a spectator nine years from one zone for the war, they recruited a hundred , the whole parishioner himself came, they promised their freedom

. other people who don't let us retreat, they went forward, they retreated, they killed their own in enemy positions , vasyl looks around, the boy is 21 years old, he graduated from ternopil university and went to war, he is the youngest among his brothers, but his eyes and gray hair are like that of a 40-year-old. in life and soon you already look at these things differently, you can eat bread that the mouse has already eaten in seconds, normal things here, i look at things in a very different way. the main thing is that there should be a prayer and it will be all right landing littered with corpses, the banerians, all without documents, only weapons, andriy on the call sign, fizruk says that the corpses are taking me like this and are decomposing in the

ukrainian steppe. i didn't mention christmas here, it's not until the holidays, we only have the internet, otherwise there's no calendar, so we only see squirrels . i don’t know what’s going on in the world, but not until the holidays . nikolaev knew that nikolaev was with us. mykolay was wounded on the left. kolya prischpa. greetings. one of the groups of russian stormtroopers was commanded by a belarusian officer, a personnel officer. all that was left of him was a bank card and rubles. this is on oleksandr likhovskyi, how he got there, i won't say. let the competent authorities figure it out, but that is the place, we are collecting everything, and this is one hundred percent , he was belarus, in the last four days, the number of killed wagnerites reached hundreds, the myth of the pvk prigozhina crashed into ordinary infantrymen of the 54th brigade and our soldiers continue to destroy the myth

of the invincible russian army, the guys ask for nothing, only prayers for those who are now in the fields defending the country, the sight of the hordes ruslan yaremchuk mykhailo putyatata tsn 1+1 marathon and the only news the offensive of the russian invaders under the bahmut is exhausted, so analysts of the american institute for the study of war believe. the enemy will probably be forced to take a tactical or operational pause near the bahmut because there is not enough artillery ammunition to maintain the pace of the offensive, analysts write. in their latest summary, they calculated that in november and december, russian troops carried out fewer attacks in the bakhmut region compared to october. and reports of heavy losses among the wagnerites indicate that the russians should not expect success in the near future. a video appeared in which our soldiers report that the russians failed the attack on bakhmut, the enemy was pushed back even from the village of opytne on the outskirts of the city.

well, from this, as you can see, the enemies are beasts that more than one kherson oblast was attacked 71 times during the last election, the sixth time, 16 people died and 64 were injured as a result of attacks on kherson and the region, among them at least 10 died due to a massive volley of russian rockets in the center of kherson on december 24, and the victim may be even more or a third of the wounded in serious condition, this is the largest one-time casualty among civilians during the entire period of russian shelling, all the horrors on the streets of kherson were seen by our film crew, the russians hit the center of samisin with a rocket kherson is one of the places where there is a supermarket , and there were always dozens or even hundreds of people here . the bodies of people are scattered around the crater from which

the tail of the rocket sticks out. there are pools of blood everywhere, even stout men cannot stand this horror. there is a car battered by shrapnel in the middle of the avenue. inside is the body of the driver who just drove past a few meters before the intersection and another car that was cut in it still has the left turn light on. this is a very popular place among kherson residents, there are always queues at the supermarket, one of the few that are still working in the city, two rockets flew here at once, while one rocket hit the building, one rocket hit here, here on the crossings, the second one hit the building, the roof collapsed and the warehouse was in ruins. the remains of the rocket are lying around in the warehouse, like the earth carries the scum from the scene of the crime. in the city near the place of arrival lives mrs.

olga, she is a nurse just returning from a shift of a hellish shift, this is horror, a little boy, 10 years old, the wound was shrapnel in the neck, a scratch, his savior is a sweater, just sweaters a shrapnel got stuck, a man was brought in with a penetrating lung wound, they also provided help and took him to the hbc to operate on him in an emergency condition, they brought eight injured people to their hospital, a tear in the cheek near the carotid artery and injuries are very scary, you just know it's scary to walk around the city and look at all this, mountains of corpses, mountains of of old iron, which even an hour ago were cars. this is also after the morning shelling. saturday is also christmas eve, a market day, but the kherson market is empty on this day. one of the rockets fell on a

market stall and burned it to the ground with an explosion. damaged the neighboring pavilion at that time the meat trade was going on here the meat trader went out to smoke and when he was flying straight to the next one on the steps he died on the spot a person died 37 hours russians are literally flooding the streets of kherson with the blood of ukrainians feel safe in the city now it's impossible anywhere, the thing is that they were yours before, if they beat the heating commune there, somewhere there, and now they're just beating us, destroying everything, everywhere, why do you have one neighborhood today, the same thing tomorrow the second one went the third one that genocide for people does these people will never see christmas again and dozens more will spend it in hospital beds and it is not known when they will rise up russia, a terrorist country, every day in

kherson they understand that we are dealing with absolutely deafened non-humans with creatures who simply there is no place on our land anton kotsyukon volodymyr cherenkov oleg mostovy tsn 1+1 marathon the only news we probably shouldn't get too excited about using new terms.org russia pig dog this is that secretary of our council security and defense oleksiy danilov on facebook , he called on ukrainians not to blur the image of the enemy, we write and immediately document it for history russian russian russia killed, attacked, robbed, raped, destroyed, only danilov lied, so that it would forever be etched in the ukrainian historical memory which nation is fully collectively responsible for the bloody war and so that we never forget this abomination of the russian brotherhood, the end of the quote, which is very close to me personally, regarding the new offensive from the territory of belarus, according to the head of the main

the intelligence department of the ministry of defense of kirill budanov, russia is not ready for him because there is not enough troops and equipment on the territory of belarus, i will remind you of this, bohdanov said in an interview for the new york times, but the ukrainian military not only closely monitors the actions of the enemy and his movements, but also prepares intensively for defense, military exercises on the northern borders of ukraine are constantly conducted . to protect strategic objects, of course, the course of the battle may be different than in these exercises, but no matter what it is, the fighters say, whether it is night, day, rain or frost, there is no difference for them, because they know exactly for whom and against whom they are defending their land the capital, meanwhile, is approaching the planned outage schedules , the company reported. clearly, the situation with energy supply has improved thanks to the fact that

energy engineers have come up with schemes for revitalizing three districts of the capital on the right bank . weekend consumption is usually less than on weekdays, the company reported that now there is no difference in the recovery schedules between the right and left banks in the capital. i would like to remind you that as a result of the last shelling of the grates, people were left without electricity for several days in the capital and a christmas tree that does not light up when in the city there is no electricity supply, this is about lviv, this city has always been associated with a fairy tale and the true spirit of the holidays, for which tourists from all over the country went there, my colleague tsn anchor marichka padalko dreamed of being there on this day, she is now they talk to us on a direct link to the vitaya river. did lviv manage to preserve its winter traditions in the conditions of the war? how often do lviv residents and guests of the city manage to admire the christmas tree now? hail god, so

really, we asked the people who were at teatralna today square that today the christmas tree was lit today more lights across the country and not only because today is christmas because when it is a weekend obviously industry does not consume so much electricity and it is here but only what private business can afford is illuminated so mostly everywhere is dark but you know, this is already a phrase that is possible and has already become familiar to ukrainians, but this is christmas, those holidays when we count first of all on the light inside, of course there are almost no tourists today in lviv, although as soon as you leave the lviv railway station, you enter the city, such a forgotten feeling of the crowd, even compared to kyiv, there are still many people here, and we understand that most of these people, who create the feeling of a real crowd, are very many immigrants, still 150,000 remain here, new arrivals now say that they meet mostly from kherson

zaporizhzhia well, lviv residents actually walk a little in the city center today, but when people came up to us during such air breaks to say hello. they were mostly from somewhere in zaporizhzhia, kharkiv . spoke in ukrainian, if we rely on such an indicator, the day before we walked a lot in lviv, we were in its various corners and wanted to see this city itself through the eyes of those people for whom it became native for reasons other than those we planned, although it was impossible, we dreamed of getting here, we spent one day with a family of immigrants and what we saw the day before christmas in lviv i suggest you look at the plot of this year's pre-christmas pre-holiday lviv is very different, probably like the whole of ukraine, and it's not only such rainy autumn weather in

my opinion there is no new year's market , there is no fair. it does not smell of lviv gingerbread or mulled wine, there is a christmas tree with no toys , only for a few hours and when there is light in the evening in lviv, it can light up with garlands and on the top, instead of a christmas star, an anti-tank hedgehog, here you don’t feel such a shit of people, a crowd of people everywhere , the sound of generators is familiar, now there are almost no classic tourists in lviv, but there are a lot of those for whom lviv has become a native place and the main refuge with such we are now and get to know luba i came with my two daughters by train to lviv from donetsk region eight months ago to this station which has received millions of ukrainians since the beginning of the

great war. the family remembered him on april 6. then she was not only running away from the war, but for the first time in her life she left the borders of her region from her native peaceful city and explosions were heard and she was very scared. the fear turned out to be stronger than the unknown of this family. they ended up at the crowded lviv railway station without any plans for the future, and they say they went to poland, they went for what i tell them, and children are called to poland here and still people with girls stay in lviv, then the volunteer tent helped, today svitlana is on duty here, who came to help for the first time 25 february and all that remains is that despite all the dangers, ukrainians return home for the holidays from abroad, that's why the station square can barely withstand the flow of buses. love alyona and khrystyna

will meet the new year themselves. there are no girls in lviv, either from relatives or from fellow countrymen. almost all of the children’s friends are abroad now, so the family takes care of itself. they like to walk the streets of lviv, especially in the center, despite the war in the country, lviv still preserves his charm and inspires romantic actions, but these will change just now. we congratulate you for just getting engaged. they came to lviv on a bus excursion and their random fellow travelers witnessed an unexpected confirmation that this couple will soon have a wedding, the sooner the better, the better to enjoy a little quiet life in lviv this military man from kharkiv is also trying, the

question is how will you go back? thank you very much for the absence of street trade before the new year, single tourists go to the traditional market vernissage we notice here an unusual souvenir, how many universal ones do you sell per day? well, when the record is said to be three pieces in one day, they produce plaster busts. cherkasy volunteers use the proceeds to help the military bakhmut today, the statuette costs uah 1,000, and he wins. when ukraine wins, the heroines of our story dream of returning home, and for now they invite us to our temporary home, this is a modular town for displaced people, where there is everything you need. they are grateful for everything and everything, but the real challenge

for them in lviv became the ukrainian language from the first for the whole family, alyona spoke all the time, our teacher was always urging you to learn, learn ukrainian, even though someday she will be useful to you there, now mother lyuba has also spoken. well, that's what i'm asking for. thank you well, i went to the store to shop and she told me so quickly, please, thank you. well, i have such a thing. well, i turned around and left. decided to invite our new friends to the opera now in lviv - this is one of the few entertainments available for more than a minute after the war, the repertoire continued today and strauss, but every performance in the theater recently starts the same

while lyuba and the girls get to know the support , we hurry to catch the lights on the lviv christmas tree but unfortunately, we do not get into her not tight light schedule this evening, the main lviv christmas tree did not shine for the whole quarter, now there is no light, only private businesses work on generators, and the square the pre-opera theater slightly illuminates the sellers of balls darkness in the hall the signal before the start of the performance darkness on the street to the new dawn to the festive victorious dawn and how all ukrainians here believe that it is necessarily in fact marichka padalko and not lobodenko marichka kuzhik valentin shekko volodymyr marakhovskyi denys yaroshenko oleg garashchenko tsn 1+1 marathon, the only news this year, the synod of the orthodox church of ukraine allowed parishes to independently choose the dates of celebrations. so, in

some ukrainian churches, today is the first time christmas services were held in the new julian style, tsn correspondent nelikovalska is now where the festive mood is felt most strongly near the christmas tree on sofia square in the capital. milk greets . well, they tell you how you feel before christmas in our half-dark capital and there are not as many people here as usual, and that is understandable. there is no christmas market, i'm so from her, we don't have much to do here, there's nothing, but everyone comes to at least take a picture next to our tree of indomitability in order to remember that at least we won the battle for this christmas today at least. well, what about people's moods, which are currently being studied not only by the church but also by the state. yesterday, a survey was launched in the application action a-a survey

about when to celebrate christmas and i'll start here 60% of our broadcasts voted for the fact that christmas should be celebrated on december 25, the church also studies all moods in a separate church, they allowed themselves to decide when to celebrate christmas. this morning i visited three churches, they are all very different and huge cathedrals, a very small parish, how is it there the holiday has taken place, i ask you to look at father serhiy through the window of his chapel, he is getting along with the column, we are setting up the last preparations for the service, he says to many people, he wishes merry christmas in the fall. the unanimous decision was made to completely switch to the new calendar, the main argument is that the transition to the new year brings order to life, we are starting in our lives he has been celebrating the new year with people

for several years now, this is his picture among the icons, he is boasting in the morning, he already received a gift, it was made, and there are sweets. what a life, and it turns out that today is a real christmas the bells went, the icons went to his abbot , father yevhen cradled his younger son, on february 19, the elder solomiyka helps her mother decorate the church, of course we are here, she gives out help, and what today today you don’t know, oh god , father yevhen is the chaplain, his church is a kind of volunteer hub, everyone, the decorations

, help as much as possible and bring them closer the victory here, too, the decision about the calendar was not made by the band, everyone unanimously said that we are for 25, and we are with the whole world, and this was our joint decision. now they are preparing for the service. choristers are singing carols. ukrainians say that christmas in december is returning to the origins and showing a liturgical book with a pile of pencils right, if you look at the calendar, it’s not so long ago, in principle, we started celebrating on the seventh, we used to celebrate on the 25th, if you take me and december, the 25th day is served by metropolitan alexander so that i could not serve among the

crypt academies continue to keep us in the strategy of joining the western world civilization from the side of light, the side of good, away from muscovy, from the dictatorship, tyranny , authoritarianism, the general says, at this service, he prayed for his pupils and brothers who now at the front, the most important thing is for them to decide and win similar prayers here in ukraine, little platon's mother has defeated everyone, says in their family what to add to the celebration has not yet been decided, to be honest, we are still hesitating, we are celebrating ideas and christmas, we will develop such a leeway for ourselves time for perestroika, but carols are sung or a festive mood arises here, even in those

who did not plan to celebrate nelikovalska ivan pavlovich tsn 1+1 marathon, the only news is to force the weapons to be locked and put an end to the war in ukraine, the pope called on those in power in his traditional message, the head of the catholic church today asked to remember ukrainians who are experiencing christmas in the dark and far from their homes pope francis also asked the pastor to be ready for concrete gestures of solidarity to help those who are suffering and ask god to enlighten those who have power to force them to lock up their weapons and put an end to the war. on the eve of the pontiff, he devoted a large part of his pre-christmas sermon to condemning greed and lust for power according to the words francis, blinded by power, is able to absorb even his neighbors, and although the pontiff did not directly mention the war in ukraine in that sermon, in the words about the condemnation of the lust for power, they saw

a hint of russia's war against ukraine and putin's obsession with the divine. the liturgy was served today. tsn correspondent oleksandr zagorodnyi is at the fanar in istanbul today, all that is being said today, more than ever before, there are many ukrainian pilgrims in istanbul how did they get there? and what a festive liturgy it is in constantinople, as christians like to call modern istanbul. greetings , alla, and christ is born, and merry christmas . a pilgrim in a huge temple, it was ukrainians, why is it so obvious, because when a person is in trouble, he looks for support from friends and relatives, and many go to god, so several hundred ukrainians are not without problems, but they got

here in istanbul, several hundred ukrainians who live in turkey came to this temple. and you know it is difficult to tell about the liturgy, let's listen for at least a few seconds to how it goes and this unique singing of our priests, they say that the greeks sing the same things and say the same words and of course that's in the translation, but we don't sing like that, but you know, ours were also able to surprise the fanar and surprise the ecumenical patriarchate because they don't have such a variety of carols. and when they heard it, they were simply surprised, let's listen to how they greeted our children and our priests and how they caroled with their hands the whole world embraces and

your family and your hut and the whole of ukraine christ is suffering merry christmas and happy new year may you be happy with every step may happiness be in your house christ was born peace be upon you ogo vika i want to note such a detail, and the ecumenical patriarch spent a lot of time with the ukrainian parishioners, he communicated with them a lot, he knows very well what our situation is, and you know that he uttered very specific and unambiguous words aggression against ukraine by russia against ukraine is a crime, and obviously i want to get these words across to those who can
