The Ministry of culture emphasizes that the" fake calculator " works 24/7 for free and without registration, because it can also be used by Ukrainians living in the territories temporarily occupied by the Russians.

To use the tool, go to site and click "Start". Then select the answers to five questions (the main signs of "fake information message") that are embedded in the site.

After the responses, the system will automatically determine whether the news is true or fake.

The whole process takes only a few minutes
