"Ukraine expects massive missile attack due to arrival of F-16s": new Russian fake

Russian propaganda is spreading a fake story that Ukraine is supposedly facing a massive combined air attack due to the arrival of F-16 fighter jets

The Center for Strategic Communications reported the information.

Anonymous Telegram channels also claim that Russia's strategic aviation is already preparing for the attack.

The truth is that Russian air and missile strikes are permanent and are not tied to the supply of any particular type of weapon.

"The loud headlines about the 'upcoming massive missile strike on Ukraine' are intended to raise the audience of anonymous Telegram channels, which are often directly linked to Russia, and to sow panic among Ukrainian citizens," the statement says.

The Center reminds that the only source that informs about a potential future attack by strategic aviation and naval missile carriers is the official pages of the Ukrainian Air Force on social media.
