Interesting post about some of the oddness at the scene of yesterday's alleged IED attack. Very graphic, I'd love to hear a logical explanation for the clean cut marks on the human skull if it was an IED glasnostgone.org/2022/02/22/in-…
As I said yesterday, the whole scene is fishier than a ship's cat's shit.
Is there an #autopsy Twitter?

We've confirmed @john_marquee's geolocation (47.2739, 38.3309) which places this video inside separatist territory right on the border with Russia. This appears to be yet another fabricated videos for another false flag. Seeing a pattern yet?
I believe this footage became available about an hour ago, and we've already debunked it in less time than it took to make it.
It also looks like building supposedly destroyed by Ukrainian saboteurs was geolocated very close to where that fake video was filmed. I suspect that's not a coincidence.

Anatomy of a Russian Seperatist False Flag - On February 18th the Telegram channel of the press service of the People's Militia of the Donetsk People's Republic published the following video, claiming to show a sabotage operation targeting chlorine tanks

They claimed that Polish speaking saboteurs "planned to blow up a tank with chlorine on the territory of a sewage treatment plant near the city of Gorlovka” and the video was recovered from the saboteurs' bodies.

However, the online community started to quickly identify a number of issues with the evidence presented. @oldLentach examined the metadata from the video, and discovered a media creation data of Feb 8th, and a Feb 4th project folder date.

Does any serious person take Russia's attempts to justify their invasion of Ukraine seriously? It's like they're phoning it in. One really obvious attempt to create a pretext for invading after another.
Their report to the UN was nearly entirely sourced from RT Russia articles. It's a like a fig leaf made of glass.
It had a real "doing all your coursework on the last day of term" vibe to it.

How dumb the spread of disinformation can be; some Twitter rando photoshops a picture from yesterday's nursery shelling, quickly admits it was a photoshop, and now people are sharing it like it's legit. Half expect it to appear in a Russian MoD press conference by this evening.
For those interested, the source of the background image is a video showing the outside of the nursery that was attacked.
Even after I made that tweet people are still sending me it as if it's some amazing trump card. Just demonstrates how easily disinformation gets out there and how hard it is to stop it once it does when there's an audience willing to lap it up

It would be nice if @Maxar and other satellite imagery companies sharing their imagery from Ukraine publicly could also make that imagery and imagery showing larger areas available on Google Earth. It's the kind of thing that's incredibly helpful for researchers.
When we were investigating cross border artillery strikes from Russia into Ukraine in 2014 that sort of imagery was extremely useful, but there was months between it being taken and then appearing on Google Earth.
Had that imagery appeared on Google Earth within a few days of the events occurring it could have been possible to prove Russia was firing artillery into Ukraine as it was happening when the internationally community could have responded, not 9 months afterwards,

Reported location of today's nursery shelling in government controlled Eastern Ukraine. If this is the correct building the impact location would be here.
Images of the other side of the building show two windows then an entryway, and this is backed up by satellite imagery of both sides of the building.
