Abstract
The purpose of the article is to identify trends in the use of social media by Ukrainians to receive news information since the beginning of the russian full-scale invasion on 24 February 2022.

Results. The following main trends in the use of social media by Ukrainians as a source of news since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion have been identified, in particular: most Ukrainians began to receive news information from social media on 24 February 2022, with news Telegram channels becoming the most important; the main reasons for using news Telegram channels are convenience, presentation of news that is not available in official media, and speed; to get acquainted with the news in the Telegram, users need from 1 to 5 channels that are monitored daily; text posts with photos proved to be the easiest to understand of all types of information presentation; understanding the dangers of fake news does not prevent Telegram users from remaining regular readers.

It has been found that from the beginning of the full-scale invasion and almost until the end of 2022, Telegram has confidently maintained its leading position as a source of news information.
