Kyiv • UNN

russian federation is spreading "news" about the use of footage of shelling from Horlivka by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the film "20 Days in Mariupol". This is reported by the Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security SPRAVDI, according to UNN.
Details
Recently, the kremlin's propaganda pseudo-media reported that the Ukrainian film 20 Days in Mariupol used footage from Horlivka in 2014, where the Ukrainian Armed Forces allegedly shelled the city.
However, it turned out to be just another fake inspired by russian propaganda.
According to the information, the fake news makers decided to use footage splicing, adding a fragment from the movie "20 Days in Mariupol" to the 2014 story about Horlivka. However, the weather conditions in the footage do not match.
Comparison of the footage of houses and trees showed that these are completely different places, and the shelling is not really related to the events in Mariupol.
Recall
It was russian troops who shelled residential areas of Horlivka in 2014 with mortars and Grad multiple rocket launchers.

The international recognition of Mstislav Chernov's documentary is yet another indication that the truth is on Ukraine's side. It also shows that the world community refuses to believe russian propaganda fakes.
