Greetings, [music] friends. This is Andriy, the Engineer Bruns channel. I have n't been in touch for a long time and today I want to tell you how we're doing. I must warn you right away that, unfortunately, there will be very little good news today. First of all, I want to thank all the subscribers, everyone who, despite the long silence on the channel, is worried about us, waiting for some news or new videos. And of course, a special thank you to all those who continue to support us financially. The channel has been inactive for almost three years, and therefore it is very valuable for us that you remember us and do not forget us. First, let me explain why I disappeared. Over the past few years, my health has deteriorated significantly and a few weeks ago I was forced to undergo surgery. There is some irony in this, because this channel was born more than 10 years ago, just after my first ulcer surgery. Then, during rehabilitation, my hobbies became YouTube and metalworking. And now again, the opportunity to film often appeared only after surgery. Now the doctors have forbidden me from any physical activity, and I have the opportunity to contact you. And now for the most difficult part. Today, all my friends who don't have a deferment or reservation are already fighting at the front. and one of my closest friends, a person who took an active part in the life of our channel, unfortunately, officially he is now considered missing, but according to information from his brothers, the probability that he died is 99%. I will deliberately not mention his name now, because, as experience shows, the Russians will use it to bully his family and his children. But those who have been following the channel closely and for a long time will guess who it is. It's clear that right now I won't be able to make any new entertaining videos for you. Now about my situation. Life is pretty tough for us right now , but I'm in the rear, not at the front. I still have a deferral from mobilization due to my daughter's disability, but I understand that the situation could change at any moment and I am preparing for it as much as I can. Our life here is also part of the war. Our city is attacked by Russian drones on average once a week. Although sometimes there are periods when this happens every night. I had the surgery in Kyiv, and my first night in the hospital ward was during a massive attack on August 27. That night, the Russians killed 25 civilians. Four of them were children and more than 60 were injured. It was a scary night in the hospital, which is located quite close to the scene of the tragedy. And the most terrible thing is that there are already quite a few cities in Ukraine for which such losses are already a daily reality. For those who live outside of Ukraine, I would like to tell a short story. There is one wonderful Christmas tradition in the world called Secret Santa. This is when children anonymously give gifts to other children. My daughter attends a specialized school for children with serious health problems. And for Christmas they received gifts from children from Germany. It was such an incredible display of human warmth and kindness. There were toys there that showed that they were the child's favorite thing, which she had sincerely shared. And these children also received a gift from Russia. Here is part of it. This is a fragment of a Shaheed's wing. These are our realities today. And finally. It's impossible to plan anything in advance right now. I don't know if we'll be lucky enough to survive. I don't know how much longer our country can hold out , but I do know that I will do everything in my power to save those who have n't yet been killed by the Russians. Of course, I dream of making at least a few more puzzles. I have a lot of ideas, and the process of designing and creating is the best way for me to escape from everyday reality. If fate gives me time and opportunity, perhaps I will still have time to create something interesting for you. Although now the workload is such that working 8 hours a day is already very good. Before the operation began, a 14-hour workday was already the norm. I sincerely thank everyone who remembers us. And sorry for such difficult news. As long as we are alive, the struggle continues. Glory to Ukraine! Yeah.
