Details
russia launched a large-scale information operation in an attempt to justify the terrorist drone strike on the railway station in Dnipro, which killed 14 people. Resources controlled by russia are spreading the fake claim that the station was allegedly damaged as a result of the "operation of Ukrainian air defense," and are also promoting conspiracy theories about a "deliberate provocation by the Kyiv regime
According to the CCD, Russian sources initially openly reported that a drone had hit a railway platform, but later began adapting their posts to fit versions about the "operation of air defense" or a "Ukrainian provocation."
This sharp change in rhetoric indicates a coordinated information campaign by the enemy. russia is once again attempting to evade responsibility for a war crime and bloody terror against Ukraine's civilian population
We remind you
the russian federation is obstructing the dissemination of truthful information in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine by banning satellite equipment and controlling Telegram channels. This creates an information "bubble" and censors information not controlled by the kremlin.
