Ukraine’s government has decided to restrict public access to information on electricity trading in the “day-ahead” and intraday markets. The move may impact businesses but not consumers .

The state-owned Market Operator JSC said on December 30 that it has ceased publishing trading data on its website and Telegram channel. The operator explained the step was necessaryfor ‘protection of Ukraine’s energy system from potential threats posed by the enemy”.

Similarly, the Ukrainian Energy Exchange confirmed the decision, citing an order from the Minister of Energy dated December 27, 2024. Under this directive, auction bulletins and average price reports will not be made public during martial law and for one month after it ends.

Registered traders with technical access to the trading system can still view auction details directly on the trading platform.

To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
