Cheers for providing a home for those in need.
I dont know of any Kodi addons for Ukrain TV, but i know the big providers have one or more channels available through their subscriptions (Ziggo for example offers Nickelodeon and Ukrain24 in their basic subscription).

I've made some enquiries within the team as well, as we have a couple of Ukrainian members who may know of anything suitable.

@flyingernst - where are you based (which country), as it may come into play if things are geolocked.

I am one of Kodi team members from Ukraine. Right now I am using Kyivstar.TV abroad and I hope to release the Kodi PVR addon for it soon.

The feedback from our other Ukrainian team member (@Roman_V_M) was as follows:

Megogo service provides free access to some Ukrainian TV channels. There should be apps for Android and other platforms.

This is in addition to what @basilgello mentions above (as our other Ukrainian team member).

I leave it to you to confirm the legality of the iptv.org listing for Ukraine but I suspect the URL's are far more legal then users with IPTV "subscribers" and "catch-up" that you see on this forum.

Reliability would be an issue, since they may or may not be static. 

A useful tool to parse this list is grep since you can list only the currently valid  with grep -A 1 online ua.m3u  You should be able to use these with any Kodi PVR that supports IPTV.

Some links are from official websites of TV channels so they are likely fine. Others are likely the open streams from provider networks, and their broadcasting rights might (again, might!) be limited to the mentiined providers only.

Both Megogo and Kyivstar.TV are 100% legitimate providers. KSTV is operated by Vidmind and 1+1 Media Group (which runs nationwide channels like 1+1, 2+2, TET and others and which is controlled by odious billionaire Igor Kolomoisky) on behalf on Veon Group that controls Kyivstar mobile and Internet provider.
