'Zelenskyy buys Hitler’s house for $14.2 million': Russian propaganda pushes new fake claim

The Center for Countering Disinformation reports the information.

Russian propagandists spread a new fake through an alleged German publication. The article claims that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy supposedly bought Adolf Hitler's house for $14.2 million.

“The published article provides no real evidence to support this claim - there are no official records, contracts, or public data confirming such an event. Moreover, the article lacks both a publication date and an author, which are typical markers of disinformation. The website used as the primary source of this story also omits editorial contact details, and the listed names are entirely fictitious,” the Center for Countering Disinformation writes.

The Center added that Russia regularly fabricates similar fakes to discredit Ukraine's president and his family.

• Russian propaganda continues its disinformation campaign about the alleged encroachment on the territory of Ukraine by its western neighbors.
