      From: robtddr@gmail.com              The BBC has launched a new shortwave radio service in Ukraine to ensure the       resilience of its news operations in Ukraine and Russia, the corporation has       announced.              The new broadcasts will make four hours of World Service English news       available every day and will reach audiences in Ukraine and parts of Russia.              Listeners in the area will be able to tune into the broadcasts at 15735 kHz       from 16:00-18:00 GMT and 5875 kHz from 22:00-00:00 GMT.              Director-General Tim Davie said in a statement: “It’s often said truth is       the first casualty of war. In a conflict where disinformation and propaganda       is rife, there is a clear need for factual and independent news people can       trust – and in a        significant development, millions more Russians are turning to the BBC.              “We will continue giving the Russian people access to the truth, however we       can."              Throughout the conflict, the BBC's Ukrainian and Russian services are also       providing live updates online.
