New Russian fakes exposed by Ukraine’s Center for Countering Disinformation

This was reported by Espreso TV.

According to the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, on August 11, the Russian Federation launched three major deceptions.

Fake news: Russian Telegram channel Pervyi Kharkovskiy reports that a rocket attack killed more than 800 Ukrainian soldiers in Konstiantynivka overnight.

Disinformation: Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said: "Neither Washington nor Kyiv wants peace. America wants undivided power and does not spare the bloody Ukrainian salo for it." (Salo is a famous traditional Ukrainian food, made of cured pork fatback or boneless pork belly, usually without lean meat and skin.- edit.)

Fake: "The Kyiv regime is a neo-Nazi malignancy on the body of Eastern Europe. It shows Nazi signs, organizes torchlight processions, oppresses the Jewish population and, of course, professes total Russophobia," said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
