My understanding of today's war crime in #Olenivka colony, Donetsk region.
I regularly read the propaganda channels of "DNR/LNR war reporters". Therefore, I can share my observations on how they construct their information campaigns. Thread 🧵 1/13
A few days ago, these "war correspondents" began massively distributing their "interviews" with prisoners from the #Azov battalion. They all talked about committing terrible crimes against civilians (especially in Mariupol). 2/13
They confessed to everything that was attributed to them, and described in detail all the horrific crimes "committed" (I think there is no point in talking about the credibility of the information in the interviews in captivity). 3/13
URGENT. Russian troops have taken the staff and patients of #Mariupol Hospital as hostages. Thread 1/5👇
