Russian propaganda continues an information campaign aimed at discrediting the Armed Forces of Ukraine by spreading fabricated "eyewitness testimonies" about alleged war crimes.
The Center for Countering Disinformation under Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council stated this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.
"Over the past few days, the enemy has released a series of manipulative reports featuring 'eyewitness testimonies,' which are being actively spread by Russian propaganda resources," the statement said.
According to the agency, the first video features another released Russian prisoner of war who appears completely healthy and follows a scripted narrative about alleged "beatings" and "abuse." In another video, a man identifying himself as a resident of Pokrovsk speaks of "executions of civilians," "cut-off ears," and "shot knees."
