Most of us have combat experience. Before the Russian invasion, we worked as directors, cameramen, presenters, and editors. Now we combine military service with media work. We are constantly on the collision course. The channel's studio, from which the streams originate, is also not far from the front. 📲 Subscribe to the Army TV social network so as not to miss the most important events from the front! 🔷 Telegram https://t.me/army_tv 🔷 Facebook / armytv.ua 🔷 Instagram / army_tv_ua 🔷 TikTok / army_tv_ua 🔷 X https://x.com/army_tv_ua 🎙️ And also listen to our PODCASTS: 🔷 Spotify https://open .spotify.com/show/6r3UPES... 🔷 Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 🔷 YouTube • Army TV - CONTACT US
