| Description: | CLAIM: A video shows Russian leader Vladimir Putin announcing Russia will send “help to Palestine” in the latest Israel-Hamas War. AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The video is from 2021 and shows Putin speaking at Russia’s Victory Day military parade. He doesn’t make any references to the Middle East conflict in the speech, but rather talks about the defeat of Nazism. Russia has so far issued carefully calibrated criticism of both sides in the Israel-Hamas war. |
