These tasks remain key for the channel.<\/p>\n    <blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cFor the international broadcasting team, FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c represents four years of daily, very challenging work to ensure that Ukraine\u2019s voice in the world grows stronger and that hostile lies and propaganda receive a worthy response. A year ago, international broadcasting began producing the information marathon entirely independently, and now we can say \u2014 we have succeeded in this task. We launched several new projects, recently obtained a digital radio license, and in February the FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c mobile application became available. We are working to strengthen the broadcast channel\u2019s coverage and expand our reach on digital platforms. Last year, we expanded our presence in Kyrgyzstan, Serbia, Moldova, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, and the UAE; we signed agreements thanks to which FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c appeared for the first time in the provider offerings of Albania and Luxembourg. We pay great attention to engagement with our communities. On YouTube, we already have over 3 million subscribers. We increased the number of digital platforms to 15 \u2014 in the summer, we launched FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c. KAVKAZ on TikTok. We see our digital audience growing in EU countries, Central Asia, and the Caucasus. At the same time, despite all restrictions by Russian authorities, the share of views from the Russian Federation remains no lower than 20%,\u201d said <strong>Yuliia Bin<\/strong>, Director General of the state enterprise \u201cInternational Broadcasting Multimedia Platform of Ukraine,\u201d which includes FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n   <p>Ukrainian international broadcasting operates under conditions where Russia constantly attempts to interfere with FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c\u2019s work. Over four years, the channel has repeatedly faced hacker attacks, satellite attacks, and anonymous threats. Unfortunately, last year brought even more severe trials. During filming in Kramatorsk, FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c military correspondent Aliona Hramova and cameraman Yevhen Karmazin were killed by a Russian drone strike; in Kyiv, a missile attack destroyed the international broadcasting office.<\/p>\n    <blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThis year tested our team with very heavy losses and challenges. <a href=\"https:\/\/uatv.ua\/uk\/zagynuly-za-pravdu-v-ukrayini-zgaduyut-zhurnalistiv-telekanalu-freedom-alonu-gramovu-ta-yevgena-karmazina-video\/\">We always remember<\/a> Aliona Hramova and Yevhen Karmazin, whom Russia killed while they were doing their job. But the truth for which our colleagues worked has not been and will not be killed by the enemy. Eleven months ago, a Russian missile destroyed our office and FREE\u0414\u041e\u041c\u2019s studio, but we did not stop broadcasting for a single second. Over this year, we have repeatedly seen how vulnerable the world remains to lies and how emboldened hostile propaganda has become.
