MELITOPOL, June 22. /TASS/. Security and law enforcement authorities in the Zaporozhye Region have obtained evidence Kiev has been getting ready to make a series of fake videos with the participation of foreign media in the city of Gulyaypole about allegedly heavy civilian casualties caused by the Russian army’s actions.
"The Ukrainian side is plotting a campaign to discredit the Russian Armed Forces. A series of videos will be prepared with the participation of foreign media testifying to an allegedly large number of civilians killed in the frontline zone as a result of the Russian army’s actions," the region’s law enforcement authorities told TASS.
The security and law enforcement agencies have evidence mannequins of various sizes have been delivered to Gulyaypole. Belgian television journalists are expected to arrive soon for "making provocative content."
Kiev has repeatedly resorted to similar gimmicks, spreading falsehoods about alleged mass graves in Bucha, Kupyansk, and Kherson. On April 3, 2022, the Russian Defense Ministry dismissed the Kiev regime’s accusations of killings of civilians in Bucha, the Kiev Region. It recalled that the Russian Armed Forces completely left Bucha as early as March 30 last year, while the so-called evidence of rumored crimes appeared only four days later, when officers of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) arrived in the city. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called the Bucha incident a "fake attack."
