Introduction
Providing oncological care in conflict conditions is a difficult test for the country’s health care system, especially if aggression is carried out in violation of the main international rules of conduct of war, the treaties of the Geneva Convention, when the aggressor attacks the civilian population.

Material and methods
Having conducted an analysis of the style of military operations conducted by the aggressor and the peculiarities of the territories of Ukraine, the quality of providing oncological care before the conflict, the digital transformation of the state, the use of the application Diya by the population, and the functioning of the eHealth electronic medical telecommunication information system, we identified four zones of providing oncological care during martial law.

Results
Each zone is defined and the amount of consultation and diagnostics with subsequent treatment assistance to the population is presented. Conclusions: Thanks to the practical implementation of the above characteristics, with a constantly functioning Internet network throughout Ukraine with a sufficiently high level of computer literacy of the population and available online means of communication, and in addition to the high level of organization of the Ukrainian and international volunteer service, it was possible to provide a qualified level of oncological care to the population during martial law.
