In 1990, the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein decided to organize a "small war of victory" and occupied the small, oil-rich Kuwait. But just half a year later, the international coalition liberated the country and inflicted a crushing defeat on the aggressor. And although the main role in the war in the Persian Gulf was played by the forces of the United States and its European allies under the general command of Norman Schwarzkopf, even the Arab countries - Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE - came against Iraq. It was an exemplary and demonstrative operation, where high-precision weapons, aviation, and drones played a decisive role. However, despite the stunning success, it was not possible to implement all the plans of the allies.

"History Without Myths" is a popular channel about the past of Ukraine and the world without embellishments and falsifications. The experts of our programs are professional historians (doctors and candidates of historical sciences, professors, associate professors, employees of scientific institutes and historical museums), each of whom is a specialist in a specific issue. The topics of the issues cover all periods and cover a wide range of issues: political, military, economic history, history of international relations, history of culture, arts and sports, biographies of outstanding personalities.
The goal of our project is to disprove anti-scientific myths, fakes and stereotypes about Ukraine and Ukrainians, spread public interest in history, pride in the glorious past, victories and achievements of the Ukrainian people, promote the consolidation of Ukrainian society, and create a positive image of Ukraine and Ukrainians.
Every week, 2 new videos are released on the channel: on Wednesday "History without myths" at 14.00 and on Saturday "10 questions to the historian" at 12.00.
