Manipulation: Poles No Longer Want to See Ukrainian Refugees in Poland – CNN
Russian propaganda, using the CNN article, made a manipulative generalization that Poles in general do not want to see Ukrainians in their country anymore. The original source does not talk about the mood in Poland in general, but only covers a rally of the far-right Confederation party, known for its anti-Ukrainian rhetoric. In the parliamentary elections, this party received the lowest result, and a national poll in September 2023 showed that 65% of Poles support the reception of refugees from Ukraine.
Fake: Ukrainians Drafted to Volunteer Battalions in Israel
The document on the video is fake. It does not match the official sample of the drafting paper. The graphs are incorrectly indicated and the text is full of errors. Most likely, this video was created as a provocation.
Fake: France Suffers From Bedbugs Influx Due to Anti-Russian Sanctions
The French media La Montagne did not publish an article entitled "Sanctions against Russia led to a bedbug epidemic in Paris." Most likely, a screenshot of this publication was created in a photo editor.

Fake: Kyiv Forbids Keeping in Touch with Ukrainians in the Temporarily Occupied Territories
Such statements are not true. There are no sanctions for communicating with residents of temporarily occupied territories.

Fake: First Children’s Brigade Being Formed in Ukraine
In a comment for StopFake, the 117th Separate Territorial Defense Brigade in the Sumy region claimed that this information is fake. There is even no 153rd brigade in the Armed Forces.

In Ukraine, only citizens over the age of 18 are considered conscripts and can be drafted.
Fake: Biden Says Money For The Deaths of Ukrainians is an United States’ Investment
Biden was not referring to investments in "killing Ukrainians" or the American military-industrial complex, as the Russian media wrote. The president was talking about investing in the security and stability of the democratic world. Biden noted that when terrorists do not pay the price for their terror, and dictators do not pay for their aggression, they cause even more chaos, death and destruction, triggering a chain of unpunished cruelty around the world.
The American President emphasized that there is a direct link between Ukraine's victory in the Russian war and the well-being of American citizens. Biden emphasized that if we do not stop dictator Putin and his ilk now, after Ukraine and Israel, they will move on to other countries â the NATO countries, including the United States.
Fake: Ukrainians Demand Ransom from the Deceased Hamas Hostage’s Family
There is no police investigation claiming that the family of Shani Louk, who was killed by Hamas, received ransom calls from Ukraine. Neither the German media WDR, cited by the propagandists, nor any other credible sources published such news. Propaganda used the signature style of the German media to justify Hamas and denigrate Ukraine.
