Kyiv • UNN
Hostile channels are spreading disinformation about an alleged chemical attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the kursk region. The Center for Countering Disinformation refutes these claims, emphasizing Ukraine's compliance with its international obligations.
Hostile TG channels are spreading a fake that the Ukrainian Armed Forces allegedly carried out a chemical attack in the Kursk region because of the "inability to break through" russian defense. This is reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation, UNN writes.
Details
According to russian propagandists, the Ukrainian army used chemical weapons on russian positions, violating international law.
In fact, this is another fake. Firstly, Ukraine is a signatory to the Chemical Weapons Convention and strictly adheres to its international obligations. Second, the racists do not provide any evidence, which is also a sign of fake news
The Center emphasizes that russian propaganda military commanders, who write about the war from the kremlin's point of view, occasionally distribute videos showing the use of chemical weapons by russian troops against Ukrainian positions, which is a war crime and a clear violation of the laws of war.
Recall
The Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council denied the information about the outbreak of bacterial infection in Kherson. The epidemic situation is normal, no outbreaks have been recorded. The fake is aimed at spreading panic among the population.
