Performing during the war means tighter budgets, longer hours and quadruple the effort, said the hall's co-director Taras Demko. In early July when 10 people were killed in a Russian missile strike on a residential building in Lviv, the Organ Hall cancelled that night's choral concert. The hall spotlights Ukrainian music, including new compositions and little-known works. It was given its professional world premier at the Organ Hall earlier this year.

Soccer Football - Premier League - Chelsea v Nottingham Forest - Stamford Bridge, London, Britain - May 13, 2023 Chelsea's Kepa Arrizabalaga during the warm up before the match REUTERS/Peter Nicholls/File PhotoMADRID, Aug 14 (Reuters) - Real Madrid and Chelsea have reached an agreement for goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga's season-long loan to the Spanish club, the clubs announced on Monday. He has reportedly been targeted by Bayern Munich as the German side are seeking to replace their own injured goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer, but Real Madrid moved faster to secure the deal. Courtois joined Real from Chelsea in 2018 after winning two Premier League titles, the FA Cup and the League Cup during his time at Stamford Bridge. Real Madrid had only one other goalkeeper in their first team squad, Ukraine's Andriy Lunin. The 24-year-old Lunin has made only nine Spanish league appearances for the club since signing from Zorya Luhansk in 2018.

Mo Abbas / NBC NewsKuvtun is among the Ukrainian Christians who turned Christmas into a fresh front in the war with Russia. We choose this civilization,” said Archbishop Yevstratiy Zorya, the spokesperson for the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Kyiv Patriarchate. Hours later, Putin ordered his military to observe a 36-hour cease-fire in Ukraine for Russian Orthodox Christmas and called on Kyiv to do the same. And even as it has sought to distance itself from Russia, the UOC has also stuck with Christmas on Jan. 7. Zorya, the OCU spokesman, said the Russian Orthodox Church, to which the UOC still bears at least a nominal connection, remains hopelessly imperial in its outlook.

După ce a schimbat mai multe posturi, Zinchenko a ajuns să evolueze foarte bine ca mijlocaș ofensiv, cu un potențial enorm. A fost apoi căpitan al naționalei U19 a Ucrainei, iar la Șahtior a evoluat alături de Douglas Costa, Henrikh Mkhitaryan și Fernandinho. În 2014, când a izbucnit războiul în regiunea Donbas, mama lui Oleksandr Zinchenko a decis că e mai bine ca familia să fugă în Rusia. A impresionat imediat și a primit și prima convocare la naționala mare a Ucrainei, chiar cu câteva zile înainte de a împlini 19 ani, în octombrie 2015, într-o înfrângere cu Spania, 0-1.
