The Day of the Information and Media Structures of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine is observed in Ukraine every December 29. Established in 2010, this professional holiday honors press officers and employees of military media, marking the anniversary of the Press Service of the Ministry of Defense's establishment in 1991. The day recognizes the vital role of military journalists, who have become increasingly visible since the 2014 annexation of Crimea and the ongoing conflict, particularly following the full-scale invasion in 2022. Key organizations involved include Armiya INFORM, Armiya TV, Armiya FM, and Briz, which serve as the official media outlets for the Ministry of Defense. The holiday emphasizes the importance of providing timely and accurate information while navigating the challenges of reporting sensitive military details. It serves to thank Ukrainian press officers for their dedication and selfless work in challenging circumstances.
