Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.
It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.

ComReg says that it hopes to roll out a new feature next year to better deal with such scam call. But some phones already have a feature that can help protect against scam calls.
