The claim that BBC News labelled a photo of Ukraine's Ambassador to the UK, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, as the "next president of Ukraine" is unfounded and constitutes disinformation. The screenshot, purportedly taken from a BBC News broadcast, has been faked.
WHAT WAS CLAIMED: A UK regional newspaper says 70,000 Ukrainian Soldiers died in Kursk.
OUR VERDICT: False. The newspaper front page is fake.
The propagandists fabricated a screenshot of a Ukrainian news article with a quote purporting to be from Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to the head of the Ukrainian presidential administration, saying that EU countries 'owe' Ukraine for security. In reality, Podolyak said that each country independently determines the amount of military assistance Ukraine can expect.
A post shared on Facebook claims to show a Charlie Hebdo magazine cover of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Verdict: False
There is no evidence that this image was created by the magazine. It is fake.
Telegram channels that spread this fake about Musk actually used a fragment of an interview he and Trump did in February. [...] During the program, Ukraine was mentioned once - by the host of the show. The discussion was actually dedicated to criticisms of DOGE's activities and a "constitutional crisis" in America. Elon Musk didn't mention Ukraine even once.
Neither Euronews nor any other trustworthy source has reported such an incident.
No video with such content was published by the French news channel BFMTV.
The Verdict: Fake.
Comparing the original CNN video with the viral clip shows that AI audio was inserted to falsely portray Rubio threatening to cut Starlink to Ukraine.
This video is fake. Propagandists used the French newspaper's branding to fabricate a story about a non-existent poll. According to recent polls, Putin is widely disliked in France - only 10% of respondents view him positively.
Verdict: False.
There is no evidence that this outlet reported this. There is no evidence that 70,000 Ukrainian troops died in the Kursk offensive.
