The logical conclusion of the master's course "History and hybrid threats", created within the framework of the Erasmus project "Academic counteraction to hybrid threats", was the topic "IPSO - a component of the hybrid Russian-Ukrainian war". The main speakers of the topic were our defenders, who are directly involved in military events.
The first class was conducted by A.L. (for security reasons, we provide only initials), who introduced the peculiarities of the work of the press group of one of the Ukrainian military units. She presented video materials dedicated to military operations near the city of Siversk (Donetsk region). Within the limits allowed by social networks, the process of destroying the enemy's military equipment and the behavior of representatives of both armies on the battlefield are shown (https://youtu.be/1cka5sOs5jk?si=5qo1rT5TbawPfEMY; https://youtu.be/ZhcN4gTXaYw?si=C8myjpdOL5CMquVu).
The second lesson was devoted to the organization of the chaplaincy service in the Ukrainian army and was conducted by Father Dionysiy, who became one of the first in this structure (https://www.facebook.com/otets.dionisij.va). Using his own example, he described its formation, the main tasks of military priests, disclosed difficulties and successes in work.
We sincerely thank our defenders and their comrades! Thank you for your sincere service and we wish you Victory!
