Russian mass media spread misinformation as if the victims in Bucha were movie dummies” brought by the “Kyiv regime” after the rf army retreated from the Ukrainian city.
It was informed by the Center for Countering Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine.
“As the main proof for this statement, they used the video dated 7.04.2022, where Ukrainian servicemen were allegedly putting clothes on a dummy,” explained the Center for Countering Disinformation.
The Center for Countering Disinformation quoted the comment of the russian film director Nadia Kolobaeva who told where the video material actually came from.
“Recently, russia-24 TV channel decided to “unmask” Ukrainian fakes on the air. They said, live on TV, that “two Ukrainians in a military uniform are taping the dummy with duct tape to pass it later off as a corpse”. And this is when on 20 March we were shooting the fall out of the window in Vsevolzhsk for our series, and this is our stunt coordinators with the assistant are preparing Albertik for shooting!”, said Kolobaeva.
Today, the counselor of the city mayor of Mariupol Petro Andriushchenko informed that the russians have been spreading the fake about full control of the city for the second day now. In fact, the largest part of Mariupol is Ukrainian.
