The number of female officers in the Ukrainian army has increased dramatically since the country mobilized to defend itself from Russia’s invasion in early 2022. Rubryka’s journalist has recently tested the women's uniform. But how does this reflect women’s situation in Ukraine in general? How does the war affect them?  In the latest episode of Rubryka’s podcast, you can hear about the solutions Ukrainian women work toward during war and beyond. On July 27, Ukrainian award-winning fencer Olha Kharlan became one of the symbols of Ukraine’s invincibility when she refused to shake the hand of a Russian athlete who had competed under a neutral flag. While the entire world watches and posts about Barbie, Ukrainian Barby defends Ukraine and its honor inside and abroad the country.

Hosts: Vladyslav Faraponov, Rubryka’s editor, and Anastasia Rudenko, Rubryka’s editor in chief
