Liliya Rebrik on Armed Forces Day and the Shelling: You Embrace Your Children Even Tighter.

According to ТСН: Actress and TV presenter Liliya Rebrik shared touching family photographs with her husband Andrii Dykyi and their three daughters, creating a festive atmosphere. In her photo blog, she presented a holiday photoset filled with pre-New Year magic. Liliya also spoke about the significance of Saint Nicholas Day and Armed Forces Day of Ukraine, emphasizing how these holidays have changed against the backdrop of war. The star stressed that on this day Ukrainians feel both the celebration and the pain, and boundless gratitude to the defenders of the country.

“Saint Nicholas Day should be about fairy tales and the anticipation of a miracle. Armed Forces Day is about gratitude to our defenders. And after the night shelling, all of this weaves into one big desire: well, you know yourself — for all those over there, in the swamps, to disappear. These two holidays strangely resonate with each other today — both are about the fragile but stubborn miracle of life,”

Liliya also mentioned the night shelling of Ukraine when Russian forces attacked peaceful cities with strikes from Shahed drones, ballistic and cruise missiles. She emphasized that this affected the mood, but did not leave faith in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, hoping for a swift victory.

“I look at my girls and think of all the Ukrainian mothers who calmed their frightened children that night. Protected them. And not for a moment doubted: only thanks to our Armed Forces will we be able to say in the morning — we withstood another night. You embrace your children even tighter, even softer. You want to hide them from all evil. And you really want victory already! Thank you to everyone who brings it closer! May all heavenly powers protect you,”

Recently, presenter Kateryna Osadcha also created a festive atmosphere with photos with her husband and children by the Christmas tree.

In these difficult times, festive moments become especially valuable for Ukrainians. Liliya Rebrik, sharing her thoughts and emotions, reminds us of the importance of family support and gratitude for those who defend our country. Such messages strengthen the spirit and highlight that the light of the holiday can break through the darkness, even in the toughest times.
