As confirmed, based on facts and evidence, by Russia's Ministry of Defence and FM Sergey Lavrov as well as independent investigative outlets, the maternity hospital "incident" in Mariupol was indeed a hoax, completely staged by the Neo-Nazi "Azov" battalion. The #fakenews regarding "Russian attack" were actively disseminated by the Western politicians, digital platforms and mainstream media, while voices debunking the fakes were suppressed and eradicate (including Russian Embassies' tweets being blocked and deleted).

❌ #FakeNews: Russia indiscriminately bombs civilian infrastructure, including shopping malls
Mainstream media outlets "fiercely" report on Russian Forces bombing civilian infrastructure, including shopping malls... which is, yet again, an easily debunked piece of #FakeNews 👇
In reality: The Retroville mall in Kiev was shut down and used as a shelter and resupply depot for Ukrainian artillery and multiple launch rocket systems

Fake:
According to the CNN, Russia attacked Kramatorsk city using Kinzhal hypersonic missile.
Truth:
The picture shows a different missile – Tochka-U, it is used by the Ukrainians only. The Russian Kinzhal has double keels closer to the rear end of the missile, while Tochka-U has single keel in the middle of the hull. The missile on the photo has its keels in the middle.
It is also interesting that the source of the photo is the National Guard of Ukraine, which is clearly interested in slandering the Russian side.

The anti-Russian #fakenews factory is not slowing down. No matter how ridiculous or unfounded, all fakes are picked up & legitimized by the MSM. The newest low is passing off harmless military flares as phosphorus bombs 🤦♂️

Some Ukrainian Telegram channels are spreading a rumour that Russian troops in Severodonetsk destroyed a food storage because they wanted to leave civilians without food.
Truth:
No food of any kind was stored in that particular warehouse for a long time. Ukrainian nationalists were using it as an ammunition depot. But such a disguise did not work – the building was destroyed.

Fake:
Ukrainian soldiers seized a few units of Russian military equipment in the Kherson region. Such messages are circulating through Ukrainian Telegram channels.
Reality:
The photographs presented as the evidence show a T-64BV tank, which is not used by the Russian Armed Forces but it is used by the Ukrainians.
Another proof is a “pixel” camouflage painting of the machine on top of which “Z” symbols were hastily applied. Such “pixel” camouflage is used only by the Ukrainian Army.

Russian mines endanger navigation in the Black Sea. This was stated by the President of Ukraine Zelensky during his speech before the Parliament of Norway.
Reality:
The Russian Ministry of Defence denied Zelensky’s statement. The Russian Defence Ministry spokesman, Major General Igor Konashenkov, stated that the Ukrainian Navy, from February 25th to March 4th, deployed 420 anchor mines in the Azov and Black Seas. All mines are of an outdated design; as a result of a breakage of the cables, at least 10 of them went into a “free floating”. One mine was discovered and neutralized by Turkish sailors. The whereabouts of the remaining Ukrainian mines is currently unknown.
The Russian Federation opens on a daily basis, from 08:00 to 19:00, a safe corridor with a length of 80 and a width of 3 nautical miles. All this is being done while Ukraine continues blocking at least 68 foreign ships in Odessa, Nikolaev and Chernomorsk.

The Russian military withdrew from Bucha, having previously left civilian casualties.
Reality:
Stories about Bucha appeared in several foreign media outlets at once, which looks like a planned media campaign. Taking into account that the troops left the city on March 30, where was the footage for four days? Their absence only confirms the fake.
The video of the bodies is confusing: here at the 12th second the "corpse" on the right is moving his arm. At 30th second in the rear view mirror the "corpse" sits down. The bodies in the video seem to have been deliberately laid out to create a more dramatic picture. This is easily seen if you play the video at 0.25 of normal speed.
After Russian troops withdrew from Bucha, the AFU shelled the city. This may have also caused civilian casualties.
Mikhail Podolyak uses such staged footage as a pretext to request weapons from Western countries.

Fake:
The Western media is uncensored and conducts an objective and unbiased assessment of the situation in Ukraine.
Reality:
The brightest example of censorship in the media can be seen in the removal of part of the Fox News interview with Volodymyr Zelensky. Remarkably, the part where the president of Ukraine, answering the journalist's question about the torture of POWs by the Azov battalion, says: "They are what they are" was deleted from the public domain.
Zelensky also admits that members of Azov battalion have violated the law. Now on the official Fox News channel, one can only find a trimmed-down version of the interview where the issue is not even raised.
We would remind you that the Azov nationalist battalion is also responsible for two major provocations by the Ukrainian Armed Forces - the Mariupol maternity hospital and the Mariupol Drama Theatre.
