Does a viral video really show a Russian Su-27 jet intercepting a NATO F-15 trying to get closer to a Tu22m3 bomber over Ukraine? No, that's not true: The footage which was widely copied to other social networks carried the watermark of a TikTok channel that publishes aviation videos. The caption under the video indicated it was created in the "War Thunder" video game.
Kremlin outlets have amplified claims tying former parliamentary speaker Andriy Parubiy to the Maidan shootings, the May 2014 Odessa fire, and an alleged coup in Kyiv. In reality, there is no evidence linking Parubiy to either the killings of protesters or the Odessa tragedy. Nor was there a coup in 2014: Ukraine's government was formed through a legitimate process that Moscow itself formally recognized at the time.
The bill concerns exclusively the internal optimization of administrative management and is related to the provision of social and financial guarantees for residents of the territories controlled by Ukraine; it does not provide for Ukraine to abandon the occupied areas or cede them to Russia. In addition, it is being considered by a special committee and may not be adopted
The quote that Russian propaganda attributed to Vance is fabricated. We were unable to find any confirmation in any credible Western media that the US Vice President really commented on Ukraine's ability to make payments to the families of fallen soldiers and voiced such statistics. Moreover, the original source of the so-called quote is the X profile " Reagan Ronald " with the telling bio "Ban for fact-checking!" and the "parody account" tag.
Clips featuring these supposed "greetings" have appeared exclusively on Russian state-linked outlets, with no trace on Ukrainian platforms. The footage itself shows clear discrepancies-recycled shots spliced with artificial elements-pointing to manipulation through neural network tools.
Kremlin outlets have seized on discrepancies in estimates of the number of Ukrainian children taken to Russia, touting them as supposed "proof" that the deportations are a Western invention. In reality, the varying figures reflect the inherent difficulty of gathering reliable data amid an ongoing war and under occupation. What remains undisputed, however, is the consensus among international organizations: Russia is engaged in the systematic deportation of Ukrainian children.
In fact, the measure does not amount to a ban. Rather, it addresses a longstanding translation error in the European Charter. The treaty is designed to safeguard endangered languages, while Russian - the official language of a major state - is not considered to be in need of such protection.
In fact, Ukraine continued supplying water to the occupied territories for as long as the infrastructure allowed. Disruptions began only after Russian shelling and the seizure of key facilities. The damage to canals, pumping stations, and filtration units stems directly from Moscow's military actions - not from any so-called "humanitarian blockade" by Kyiv.
The article mentions neither Ukraine nor harvesting organs from living people.
The main threat to European countries, as before, is Russia - it was named as the key threat by the majority of respondents who participated in the Pew Research Center poll. In Poland, 81% of respondents consider Russia a key threat (versus 6% who named Ukraine as a possible threat), and in Hungary, 33% placed Russia in first place (versus 27% who named Ukraine as a threat).
