The relatives of the deceased Ukrainian soldier were not booed
The video where screams could be heard was taken at a protest near the Resurrection Church in the city of Krasyliv
The memorial service for the deceased Ukrainian soldier was held in the same city
but in the Holy Trinity Church of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church
began to spread false information that parishioners allegedly shouted “shame” to servicemen and relatives after the memorial service for the fallen Ukrainian soldier
they spread a video showing people in military uniform coming out of the church to these screams
“In Krasyliv (Khmelnytskyi region) parishioners of the Russian Orthodox Church shouted “shame!” to the military and relatives of the deceased Hero
who were leaving the temple after the memorial service for the deceased
which was held by the Orthodox Church of Ukraine,” users write
Previously, StopFake refuted the information that the Ukrainian military in Kherson allegedly were ordered to shoot curfew violators on the spot
is one of hundreds of teenagers still waiting for a Homes for Ukraine decision
Vlad is one of hundreds of teenagers who applied to the Homes for Ukraine scheme having fled war without his parents. While the Home Office struggles to decide how to deal with cases like his
they have been left in limbo for weeks – and even months – with no decision
knowing that my parents are one and a half thousand miles away and our destiny is still unknown,” Vlad said
A keen student, Vlad was preparing for school exams when areas around his home town of Krasyliv in western Ukraine came under intense bombing
recalled: “She was telling me that every day they could hear sirens and three or four times a day they would go down to the bomb shelter which was very cold
It was impossible to sleep there at night with the sirens going off.”
“I promised that I would take good care of Vlad,” she said
She arranged for him to join her and her two sons in Italy
so Reviuk applied under the Homes for Ukraine scheme at the earliest opportunity
The British family quickly made ready two large spare bedrooms and a separate living room
two months have gone by while Reviuk and the children wait in a cramped rented room in a flat in Modena
Reviuk said: “Living in one bedroom with two teenage boys and one small child who wakes up at night and is also sometimes sick is very difficult for us.”
said: “It’s so frustrating to think that they could have been enjoying the space and support on offer here
but instead we’ve all been spending hundreds of hours battling with bureaucracy that seems to have been set up to deflect rather than to protect those fleeing this brutal conflict.”
Hanlon is in touch with about 40 other sponsors in similar situations
“The government’s broad answer to most questions on the subject
is a cynical use of this term to avoid having to deal with the most vulnerable group affected by this war.”
Given that Vlad is travelling with a legal guardian
his case should be one of the straightforward ones
“I do not understand the logic of safeguarding me because in my country there is a war and there is no worse security situation for me than staying there,” Vlad said
“It just doesn’t make sense to me what safeguarding issues the government could have
when we have all the documents in place and Olesia is a family friend who has legal guardianship?”
The Home Office has been sent a “letter before claim” over the families’ case
said: “The delay in even providing a decision while keeping the family in the dark demonstrates that the secretary of state has failed to make an adequate policy to meet the promises she has made
She is turning her back on some of the most vulnerable people fleeing the conflict
the waiting means uncertainty over his education
He has only a week left to tell the Ukrainian authorities which country he will be in to take his exams remotely and is unsure what to put
Reviuk said: “The UK government is taking the future away from Vlad
And right now we just do not see the future.”
Ukroboronprom (Ukrainian defense industry organization) made an announcement about Malyuk bullpup rifle successfully passing government tests
They’ve already started manufacturing it
It is a bit confusing because they don’t literally state that the gun is adopted. However, passing all government tests and trials and being put into large-scale production usually means that. Malyuk is a heavily modified AK-74 converted into a bullpup configuration
Right now “Krasyliv Aggregate Plant” factory upon order of another Ukrainian company called “Interproinvest” started manufacturing the rifle
Ukroboronprom has also released a video on their YouTube channel demonstrating the rifle:
it is possible that Ukraine manufactures it to offer for export only
there is usually no need of extensive government tests
because if other countries decide to buy the gun
government tests result in either adoption or canceling of any particular firearm
nobody from Ukroboronprom answered to my messages for clarification of their announcement
Ukraine developed its first AK-based bullpup rifle in 2003
Later they were continuously revising and upgrading the rifle and eventually it evolved into Malyuk
Ukraine showed Malyuk last year and since then it appeared in many arms fairs
it was adopted in small numbers by Ukrainian special forces and even saw limited use in the current war in Ukraine
