The network is replicating a fake about a sharp deterioration in the epidemiological situation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine/Collage of Channel 24
Pro-Russian telegram channels are replicating fakes about a sharp deterioration in the epidemiological situation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Thus, Russia is trying to sow panic among our military.
The Center for Counteracting Disinformation warns about a new stuffing. The department once again called for trusting only trusted media.
Russians spread nonsense about the tuberculosis epidemic
Russian propagandists quickly picked up the thesis that “an epidemic of tuberculosis has begun in the Ukrainian army.” They say that our doctors allegedly cannot determine the exact cause of the epidemic, but they are inclined to two options for a “mass outbreak”:
- recruitment of underexamined reservists and terrorist defense fighters,
- active recruitment prisoners in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
At the same time, the infidels refer to “a source in the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.” Of course, there is no link to the data.
Propagandists note that “the level of sanitary losses from tuberculosis is more than 10% of the personnel.” In addition, according to them, many military personnel need to be evacuated.
We warn you that the information provided is not true and was created with only one purpose – to demoralize and spread panic. among the military,โ the Center for Counteracting Disinformation noted.
Russia's latest fakes
- The main journalist refuted the fakes of the Russians, journalist Sergei Leshchenko, said that the occupiers had a “crisis of the genre.” Kremlin propaganda resorts to repeating theses. So, in early May, they again began to disperse fakes about biological weapons in Ukraine. The Russian media are seriously publishing theses that “American experts are looking at the established facts of the work of biological laboratories in Ukraine.” Just in case, Leshchenko repeated that Ukraine did not develop any biological and chemical weapons.
- At the same time, Russia is trying in every possible way to discredit Ukrainian refugees abroad. Their propaganda disperses the notion that Ukrainians in Poland have better access to a range of public services. However, Polish politicians, on the contrary, assured that the internally displaced persons strengthen the economy of Poland.
- Representative of the Odessa OVA Sergey Bratchuk noted that, among other things, the Russians are actively rushing around with reports that their troops are planning an attack on Odessa. However, according to him, this is just a fake, which aims to disorient Ukrainians, sow panic, despair and cover up their own defeats from the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
