Ukrainian Center for Countering Disinformation shares new update on Russian fakes

The Center for Countering Disinformation shared the digest on Telegram. 

Russian propagandists have spread false information that the Armed Forces of Ukraine  allegedly "send 14-16-year-old soldiers pumped up with drugs to the front line." The propagandists cite an alleged Russian military officer, who wished to remain anonymous, as their source.

Also, Russian propaganda media spread misinformation that foreign mercenaries are allegedly fighting instead of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in some areas of the Kreminna-Svatove direction, Luhansk region. And Polish flags are raised over the “Ukrainian positions”.

Moreover, Russian ambassador to Poland Sergey Andreev accused Ukraine of trying to "bring Russia and its Western facilitators to direct confrontation."
