Speaker A

Greetings, I’m Stas Konovalov, and this is UA Mediahub, a platform for news from all over Ukraine. Today in our broadcast: important decisions in medicine and justice, as well as high-profile regional events. We’ll tell you how cancer patients in Kharkiv

Speaker A

are being saved with a new accelerator, and how a child killer in Dnipro was sentenced to life imprisonment. You will also learn which ancient battles of the Poltava region will come to life in a modern art project, and how an

Speaker A

innovative lab in Lutsk helps veterans learn to walk again. We’ll cover the fierce neighborhood wars at a plant in Dubno, a unique program to preserve historic facades in Chernivtsi, and free hot meals for all schoolchildren in Zakarpattia. Coming up in our digest.

Speaker A

A state-of-the-art linear accelerator has begun operation at the Kharkiv Regional Oncology Center to treat patients. The new equipment allows specialists to perform radiation therapy with maximum precision, effectively targeting tumors without harming healthy tissue. According to the head of the Regional Military

Speaker A

Administration, Oleh Syniehubov, this is a significant step in the development of oncological care in the region. Despite the challenges of a full-scale war, the modernization of medical facilities in the Kharkiv region continues systematically. Now, local residents have the opportunity to

Speaker A

receive high-quality, comprehensive treatment without leaving the region. The new equipment is called a Linear Accelerator. As of this week, we have started using it to provide radiation to patients who need it. This was all achieved thanks to the efforts of the

Speaker A

Ministry of Health of Ukraine, personally Minister of Health Viktor Kyrylovych Liashko and the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Oleh Vasylovych Syniehubov. This significantly expands our capabilities for radiation therapy and the general complex treatment of patients with tumors of various

Speaker A

localizations. Today, we have about 100,000 oncology patients registered in the region. Therefore, this is a substantial and significant reinforcement, and we hope that the results of our work will only continue to improve. It is truly a technological breakthrough, because there are certain

Speaker A

localizations and tumor processes that are closely adjacent to the esophagus, or even the heart or kidneys. And with the linear accelerator, it is possible to bypass these areas while still delivering a sufficiently powerful therapeutic dose to the tumor. We treat

Speaker A

about 2,000 patients per year. Daily, about 50-60 patients receive radiation treatment. We started by treating a patient with breast cancer. During one session under the machine, we irradiate about four areas. This is a big plus because it takes less time—only 2

Speaker A

minutes of radiation. Direct treatment on the linear accelerator is one hundred percent free of charge.

Speaker A

In Dnipro, a 59-year-old man who brutally murdered three people has been sentenced to life imprisonment. Among the attacker's victims was a 13-year-old boy, whom the perpetrator fatally stabbed during a carefully planned robbery in August 2022. During the investigation, juvenile prosecutors

Speaker A

proved the killer’s involvement in two more crimes. These involved the murder of his own brother for an apartment and the murder of a former colleague. The court fully supported the prosecution's position, sentencing the offender to the maximum penalty.

Speaker A

His 26-year-old son, who acted as an accomplice in the robbery, will be sent behind bars for 15 years. The history of the struggle comes alive in modern formats. A large-scale art project, "In the Places of Ancient Battles," is

Speaker A

being prepared in Poltava, which will tell about five significant battles that took place in the region since the 14th century. Scientific content is being turned into a full-length 60-minute animation, supplemented by podcasts and an authentic musical accompaniment from kobzar Yuriy

Speaker A

Fedynskyi. The authors of the project aim to show that the region's military history and its aspirations for independence reach back deep into the centuries. Journalists from the IRT Poltava TV channel found out how the latest content is being created to make

Speaker A

history interesting even for the youngest viewers. An art project, "In the Places of Ancient Battles," is being created in Poltava. The goal of the project is to tell about the battles of military history that took place on the

Speaker A

territory of the Poltava region, says scientist Vyacheslav Sherstyuk. He adds: These are the five most famous battles from the end of the 14th to the first half of the 17th century, namely: the Battle of the Vorskla in 1399, the

Speaker A

Solonytsia Battle of 1596, the Kurukove Battle of 1625, the Battle of Hoftva in 1638, and the Battle of Serbynove Pole in 1658.

Speaker A

At all times, military history is timely, it is relevant, it is important. It is important to know, er, who was a friend to us and when, and who was not. Er, it is important to know that, er, our history of the struggle for

Speaker A

statehood, for our own rights, is a bit more than just the last 10-15 years.

Speaker A

The ancient history of the Poltava region will be presented in the modern language of animation, says project coordinator of "In the Places of Ancient Battles," Oksana Sherstyuk. She adds: "The program is packed. The format is currently liked by both

Speaker A

adults and children." Five full-length animated films, er, in a horizontal format, er, the total duration of the season is 60 minutes.

Speaker A

Also, these are five podcasts reflecting the views of our scientific, er, staff. Musical accompaniment will be created by national bands and the kobzar Yuriy Fedynskyi.

Speaker A

He was born in America but came to Ukraine. He lives in the Poltava region in Kozubivka. He holds an annual kobzar festival. He is coming to Poltava and will also record melodies for us on six ancient instruments. The animation

Speaker A

format allows you to draw anything, to recreate any events, locations, and characters, says Maksym Holovan, co-founder of the animation video production studio 7030 Studio.

Speaker A

One of the most, er, difficult but also most interesting projects that we have had to work on. Well, first of all, a volume of 60 minutes is already a full-length story. For the most part, we worked with animated videos of up to

Speaker A

two or three minutes. At the same time, we accepted this challenge. This story, it won't just take off, it will shoot into space because there is genuine interest from young people. And we, er, and the topic of Cossacks, and the

Speaker A

topic of, er, the liberation struggle, this is also a highly relevant story. This is scientific content that needs to be translated into understandable language, says project designer Svitlana Dolynska. These are absolutely new approaches and new forms. It's about simplification, which is popular

Speaker A

right now. Very beautiful fonts. They are all Ukrainian. The Ukrainian font Solomiya and the Ukrainian font Koty Horoshko. I am provided with real photos of some artifacts and I need to design and display them in such a way

Speaker A

that even, well, let's say, a housewife could look at them and find them interesting. According to the coordinators, the premiere of the art project "Places of Ancient Battles" is scheduled for the end of November on social media.

Speaker A

Innovations for a full life. An ultra-modern gait analysis laboratory, the only one of its kind in Ukraine, has started operating at the Lutsk Medical Center for the Rehabilitation of Combatants. Unique equipment worth over 40 million UAH uses sensors to

Speaker A

capture every movement of a patient in three-dimensional space. This helps doctors create individual recovery programs for veterans with amputations and people with musculoskeletal disorders with absolute precision, rather than by eye. Learn how the latest technologies accelerate rehabilitation after serious injuries

Speaker A

in this report by Avers TV channel. After an injury or severe illness, even a few independent steps can become the goal of a long rehabilitation process.

Speaker A

An interactive gait analysis labor

Speaker A

is the combination of 3D movement analysis and therapy capabilities. It works quite precisely, down to the muscle, which allows us, uh, to make a diagnosis not by eye, but more precisely, and it will be specifically visible what we need to work on. In

Speaker A

today's reality, diagnosing gait disorders in amputees is very important . We can also, uh, attach these sensors to a prosthesis and use them to see how an amputee's gait changes and what specifically we need to work on.

Speaker A

The laboratory is planned to be used to help people with neurological and orthopedic disorders, as well as veterans with disabilities and elderly patients.

Speaker A

Modern equipment. We are actively learning how to use it and hope it will be useful to us and help in the recovery, primarily of the guys after injuries and amputations. It can also be used for adjusting walking on a

Speaker A

prosthesis. This is, well, an indispensable tool in our work. This is modern equipment and this is the future .

Speaker A

For Ukraine, uh, this laboratory is directly a great future. I am very happy that it is in our facility, because I actually only saw it abroad in other countries. We can create a new plan every day and see the dynamics.

Speaker A

Well, of course, when we work physically, we remember it, but when the system calculates and synchronizes everything for us, we can then more clearly create an individual rehabilitation plan.

Speaker A

It was purchased within the framework of the Trans-Health project: Cross-border cooperation in the field of healthcare and palliative care under the Interreg Poland-Ukraine 2021-2027 program. Funding is provided by the European Union and the Lutsk City Council. The equipment is of Italian

Speaker A

and American manufacture, worth over 40 million UAH. This is high-quality, state-of-the-art equipment, to which we also want to add VR goggles, an ultrasound machine, and a cycle ergometer. There is no such gait analysis laboratory anywhere else in Ukraine. It is good, high-precision

Speaker A

equipment. I would wish that this equipment were used as little as possible, of course, but unfortunately, this is our present reality, where this equipment will be helpful.

Speaker A

For Volyn, these are new opportunities for rehabilitation, and for Ukraine, another center for applying modern technologies for restoring mobility.

Speaker A

Utility tensions and threats in Dubno. In one of the courtyards on Zaliznychna Street, neighbors cannot reach an agreement over a shared water supply pipe running through a private apartment. The apartment owner is adamantly demanding its removal to carry out renovations and is

Speaker A

threatening to leave the neighbors without water altogether. Meanwhile, the residents are showing documents that confirm the legality of the existing utility lines and are complaining about constant insults. Who is right in this complicated housing dispute and what the municipal

Speaker A

management office says, ITV Media Group correspondents set out to find out. There is no peaceful neighborly life here. In this courtyard on Zaliznychna Street in Dubno, neighbor wars are taking place. Ms. Angelina says: "Many problems have piled up, but the biggest

Speaker A

one is the water supply. According to her, the neighbor is threatening to leave them without water by simply cutting off the main pipe that runs through his apartment. I go out, either I went to the store somewhere, or what.

Speaker A

I'm walking, and I see them sitting— the cohabitant, or whatever they are, you see, they are indignant, I don't know. The neighbor and his partner.

Speaker A

That's how they are sitting. I pick up and turn on the camera. How did it start? Good day. For what reason are they cutting off my water?" Get the pipe away from me, I don't give a damn about it. "Well, you have everything on

Speaker A

video. I started asking why, for what reason—there was nothing but swearing , nothing but quarrels all night. The general water supply pipe runs directly through Ms. Angelina's neighbor's apartment. According to the woman, it has been installed there for many years

Speaker A

. Three apartments are connected to it. And previously, this didn't bother anyone. In addition, the woman claims the man connected another apartment to this pipe without any authorization. I say:" For what reason did you illegally connect a fourth apartment? And he says

Speaker A

to me: "What are you rambling about? You are this and that, this and that." And he started jumping on us regarding the water. "Do you have documents?" I say: "We have documents. You don't have any documents at all. I just showed you

Speaker A

in the apartment, the documents are there. Everything is official, just as it should be." And as far as I looked into the law, he has no legal right to touch the riser under any circumstances . Ms. Angelina also showed us all the

Speaker A

documents and permits. We have the documents for the water, even though the neighbor kept shouting that we didn't have any papers. The documents exist, we installed it together. Uh, there is also an inspection report that the water, the

Speaker A

meter, or the seal are in place. I don't have to explain anything, as I have proof that everything was installed legally.

Speaker A

We tried to speak with the man, but the woman living with him informed us that he is on a business trip. At the same time, she confirmed that the man objects to the pipe passing through his apartment.

Speaker A

He is going to do renovations there and doesn't want so many pipes. He just wants his own pipe and his own riser.

Speaker A

That's it, so that everyone has their own separate ones. Well, just like it is everywhere else here. It’s just that the previous tenants had agreed to it that way, but now there are different tenants living here. Well, the others don't want it

Speaker A

like that. And that's that. Those ones are no longer there. I mean the tenants who lived here before. And they agreed to connect everything into one group, because our side, everyone has their own water.

Speaker A

The Dubno city housing and utilities department informed us that the building is serviced by the "Zhytlovyk" municipal enterprise. Regarding the water supply pipe, they noted it is for general use, and the man has no right to tamper with it on his own. The

Speaker A

department also promised to visit the building and look into the situation. No one has reached out to them about this yet. In principle, their first task is to file a complaint either with the Dubno City Council or with the

Speaker A

management company. If he takes any action, they can calmly call the police and the management company. A representative will definitely have to come over because he is interfering with the internal building network. And according to the contract, the internal

Speaker A

building networks are managed by the management company. At the same time, residents of the building on Zaliznychna Street in Dubno have already begun preparatory work for installing personal water supply, so they are not left without water entirely if the neighbor carries out

Speaker A

his threats. However, they still hope that the situation can be resolved and the conflict defused. Anna Avdyayeva, Kyrylo Polyukhovych, ITV Media Group TV channel.

Speaker A

A second life for architectural heritage. In Chernivtsi, a municipal co-financing program is actively underway. It helps residents save ancient doors, balconies, and gates from ruin. A significant portion of the restoration costs is covered by the city budget, from 70 to 90%, depending

Speaker A

on the building's status. Restoring historical details requires painstaking work to preserve their authentic appearance as much as possible. Why is it important to show initiative, and how does the program make restoration accessible to city residents? Watch the report from Chernivtsi C4.

Speaker A

Chernivtsi is a city with a rich history and architecture, some of which is over a hundred years old. Antique doors, gates, balconies, and facades are what form the unique appearance of the city. But over time, all of this

Speaker A

wears out and requires restoration. However, restoring historical elements is not cheap, so Chernivtsi has a city co-financing program that allows residents to restore such objects using city budget funds and their own contributions. We have a program for the preservation of the historical

Speaker A

development of the Chernivtsi urban territorial community for 2026-2029. And accordingly, this cost-sharing program determines the percentages for carrying out repair and restoration work. These are objects within the historical areas. Also, these are objects of valuable background development, as well as architectural

Speaker A

and historical monuments of local significance. Work is being carried out accordingly to repair balconies, railings, and gates.

Speaker A

At the same time, it is important not just to replace a damaged part, but to preserve its authentic look as much as possible. If an element has already been lost or replaced with a modern one , it can be recreated using analogs

Speaker A

while considering the building's style. The amount needed for restoration is shared between the residents and the city council. If the cultural heritage site is an architectural or historical monument, the split is 90/10%. 90%is from the city council, and 10%is from

Speaker A

the residents and co-owners. This can also include businesses, because in the city center, many ground floors are occupied by businesses. This is proportional according to the occupied area.

Speaker A

If the building is not an architectural monument, then the finances are distributed 70/30. And for owners of historical balconies and oriels on the main facades of landmark buildings, another option has been provided: a fixed contribution.

Speaker A

The owner of this balcony or oriel pays a fixed sum of 10,000 UAH. Uh-huh.

Speaker A

I believe this is a very good initiative by the city council, because 10,000 as of today is really not much money for the restoration of a balcony in a monument. Because in the end, its actual cost might be 200,000 or more.

Speaker A

However, the program can only be used on the initiative of the co-owners themselves. Residents of the building at 1 Mickiewicza Street have already gone through this process.

Speaker A

Last year or the year before last, we participated in the city council's 70/30 program for door restoration.

Speaker A

From my personal experience, it is a very good option to restore and repair your building's doors. We have many such doors around the city that need repair. People might be afraid, or perhaps they don't want to worry about

Speaker A

these issues, but it is not difficult. In the case of this address, the restoration cost approximately 20,000 UAH. And, says Ms. Yevhenia, if they had ordered such work independently, the costs would have been significantly higher. Now, the residents do not plan

Speaker A

to stop at just the doors. In principle, the city itself offers things to you when you are already cooperating with them; they see that you are not indifferent. They suggest: here are these programs, there are these other programs. Perhaps you might

Speaker A

be interested in balcony repairs. Well, currently we are interested in balcony repairs. The City Council emphasizes that the program works best when the residents themselves show initiative. After all, the more Chernivtsi residents get involved in preserving their buildings,

Speaker A

the more historical details will be saved, along with the unique appearance of Chernivtsi. Maria Solomatina, Diana Radysh, Maksym Chernega. C4 News. Hot lunches for every student. Since the start of the new school year, all educational institutions in the

Speaker A

Kholomky community in Zakarpattia have introduced free meals for absolutely every student. Thanks to an outsourcing model, food is centrally delivered to the lyceums and gymnasiums by contractors, guaranteeing a high-quality and balanced menu that meets sanitary standards. Most of the

Speaker A

costs are covered by a state subsidy, while the rest is co-financed by the local budget. Journalists from the M-Studio television company reported on how tasty meals help children study better and form healthy eating habits.

Speaker A

Tasty, healthy, and balanced, so they have the energy to learn. It's lunchtime at the Storozhnytsia Lyceum cafeteria. From September 1st, all students are provided with hot meals, unlike before when only first-to-fourth-grade students and those with benefits ate for free.

Speaker A

The borscht is very tasty, and the portions are big. This is very delicious. There's pasta.

Speaker A

The bread is tasty. I love red borscht. It's the tastiest thing in this cafeteria. They serve fish with gravy, it’s very tasty.

Speaker A

Delicious. Delicious. And how this food is very tasty. I'm very glad that this law was passed so that everyone can eat now. I'm happy that they passed this law. Very tasty. My favorite is chicken wing with mashed potatoes. I get completely full. I come

Speaker A

home, and I don't feel like eating. My grandma makes me eat, but I don't want to. The school food is, yes, enough.

Speaker A

The food isn't cooked here; contractors bring it, and it's just served to the children. Every day, students receive quality hot meals. These are always fresh dishes that meet sanitary requirements and balanced menu standards, including vegetables, grains , meat, and dairy products, with

Speaker A

limited salt and sugar. Today for the first course, we have borscht with a dollop of sour cream, 250g. For the second course, we have rice with vegetables, a meat patty, a salad, bread, and apples for dessert.

Speaker A

The menu is brought to us by entrepreneur Mykhailo Dupyn. Yes. And I'm at the serving line. 250g of borscht. There’s a scale there, and we weigh everything.

Speaker A

Uh-huh. What's in the borscht? Well, it's a regular red borscht. All the kids love it. Beets, carrots, potatoes, sour cream, meat.

Speaker A

Well, probably, a nice meat broth. Well, some eat it, some don't want it, some want the second course right away, and don't have the first. Some want seconds. We give it to them.

Speaker A

They love it. Special attention is paid to the quality of products and the variety of the diet. Because they believe it is important that the lunches are not only healthy but also tasty for the children.

Speaker A

We have 190 students enrolled. Because of this number of children, we were forced to split meal times into three stages. We have organized two long breaks. During the first long break, the fifth, sixth, and seventh-grade students eat. During the second long

Speaker A

break, the ninth and 11th grades. We no longer have a 10th grade because school reorganization is underway, and this is our last year as a lyceum. After the fifth lesson, group number one starts eating, followed by group two and group

Speaker A

three. We have three after-school groups, one of which is inclusive. 70 children can eat in the school canteen at once, says the head of the institution.

Speaker A

They are brought in containers like these. There are metal ones, there are insulated containers, and there are regular containers. Fortunately, we have a place where we can reheat food, so all children are provided with hot meals. If the food cools down by the

Speaker A

second break, we reheat it. We do not create the menu ourselves. We submit the number of children every morning.

Speaker A

Well, in principle, at the beginning of the school year, we submitted the total number of students enrolled in the school. And every morning, class teachers submit information to the person who collects data for the school . And this data on the number of

Speaker A

children present in the institution is then passed on further. And according to the number of those children, we receive the ready-made portions.

Speaker A

Balanced nutrition helps children stay active and focus better during lessons. And the school canteen is gradually becoming a place where healthy habits are formed every day. This is very good , because having observed the children for several years, I see that there are

Speaker A

kids who might not have breakfast in the morning, and they don't always have money to go and buy themselves something. Therefore, organizing this free meal plan for all students is very , very good. The main thing, I believe,

Speaker A

is that children should feel comfortable and cozy at school. And when a child is hungry, you understand yourself, their mind won't work as well , and they won't be focused on the lesson or the explanation. So this is

Speaker A

very, very good. And another thing I like is that, well, we always talk to the children about healthy eating, but now the children actually see how diverse healthy food can be. By the way , as far as I know, they cook it in a

Speaker A

combi oven. And it is delicious. The school meal process was established at the start of the new school year in all educational institutions of the Kholmky community, and there are six in total. Four lyceums, a gymnasium, and a

Speaker A

primary school branch where almost 100 students study. All of them are provided with meals. For the fifth, or even sixth year now, our community has used an outsourcing model, meaning an entrepreneur does the cooking. We purchase services for organizing hot

Speaker A

meals. So, in principle, this transition to providing meals for all students from first to 11th grade was quite easy for us. Because in previous years, we always fed all elementary school students using local budget funds, as well as many students from

Speaker A

vulnerable categories in higher grades. The number of students eating has increased accordingly, but not catastrophically or significantly. Yes, the cost of lunches varies depending on the child's age, says Olena Hanych.

Speaker A

So, the cost of meals for primary school children is 70 UAH per serving per day, and 80 UAH for older students.

Speaker A

Payment is made using both local budget funds and subvention funds. Approximately 60%is paid through subvention funds—this covers food products. The remaining amount is used from the local budget, where funds have been allocated for this. For the year, it was more than 8 million for this

Speaker A

current calendar year. None of our institutions prepare food on their own. We centrally purchase the service for organizing free meals, and an entrepreneur does the cooking.

Speaker A

Quality nutrition is an important component of children's health and successful learning, and healthy eating habits formed early in life stay with them forever. And that concludes our report. We invite journalists or media outlets from various cities and towns

Speaker A

to join the UA MediaHub community. Let's stay in touch on social media and work together to provide prompt and accurate information from every corner of Ukraine. Ask questions and leave comments on social media or YouTube. We thank our defenders for the opportunity

Speaker A

to work. We remember everyone who is in captivity and bow our heads to those who gave their lives for Ukraine. May we have resilience and continue to help our military. Take care of yourselves and your loved ones. See you next time.

Speaker A

Yeah.
