Accreditation for working on the front line and in the de-occupied territories were first restored to those editors and journalists who had applied for their restoration.

This was stated by the head of the UAF Department of Public Relations, Colonel Bohdan Senyk, in his comment to an IMI representative.

According to him, the second step will be to restore accreditation to the rest of the media and journalists who have been stripped of accreditation.

As IMI reported, hromadske journalists Anastasia Stanko and Kolyan Pastyk were given back their accreditation which give them the right to work in the de-occupied territories and in the combat zone.

Accreditation has also been restored to the Sky News crew.

As IMI reported, several media representatives who had violated the rules of working in combat zones had their work permits revoked and their press cards invalidated by the Ministry of Defense.

Namely, Hromadske journalists Anastasia Stanko and Mykola Pastyko, as well as some CNN and Sky News journalists have been stripped of their accreditation. Suspilne and Hromadske's filming crews have also been working in Kherson after the liberation of the city. The Rada channel has also done a live stream from Kherson. Ukrainska Pravda photo correspondent Dmytro Larin and Telegraf UA photographer Yevheniy Zavhorondiy also reported being stripped of their UAF accreditation.
