A major overnight Russian air assault resulted in President Volodymyr Zelensky TV studio warehouse destroyed, burning down a key storage facility in the capital’s Sviatoshynskyi district. Operating under the name Kvartal 95, the media company was co-founded by Zelensky in 2003 during his successful career as a television actor and comedian before his 2019 presidential election victory.

Statements released by Kvartal 95 confirm that the strike destroyed an extensive collection of sets, costumes, and stage props accumulated over twenty years of active production. This historical archive included original material from satirical television series, feature films, and live comedy performances that originally catapulted Zelensky to national fame. Emergency services responded promptly to combat the resulting blaze, confirming that no studio staff members suffered injuries during the overnight strike.

How Is Zelensky’s Former Studio Responding To Archive Destruction?

Zelensky’s former production company, Kvartal 95, said it will continue operating despite losing two decades of physical production assets in the destruction. The studio plans to keep creating original comedy material while supporting Ukrainian defense efforts. Representatives confirmed that scheduled live performances and charity concerts will proceed as planned, stressing that the destruction of property cannot stop Zelensky-linked creative workers or weaken their cultural resilience.

The production house stopped all business activities and content distribution in Russia following Moscow’s annexation of Crimea in 2014, shifting its operational focus entirely to domestic Ukrainian programming and international broadcasting partnerships.
