The repression of Ukrainian culture, erasing any signs of Ukraine, torturing pro-Ukrainian artists have become a strategy in Crimea and coupled parts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions since 2014. 2/6

Another component is a strategy aimed at erasing any signs of Ukraine in the occupied territories, looting valuable cultural sites, persecution of pro-Ukrainian artists, destroying Ukrainian memorials and re-installing ideologically correct "Russian" signs. 5/6
All these actions make clear that Russia destroys Ukrainian culture specifically because of its Ukrainian origin. 6/6

An important part of the international support for 🇺🇦 is the training of Ukrainian soldiers. According to Ukraine’s Minister of Defense Oleksiy Reznikov, almost all the countries of the EU and NATO have joined the various training programs. 1/4
However, Russian propagandists continue to insist that no military training will turn a mobilised Ukrainian into a professional operator of sophisticated NATO equipment and weapons in just a few months, suggesting that “it's worth considering another version. 2/4

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree which states Ukrainian officials will no longer be allowed to leave the country unless on official business trips or under certain personal circumstances. #UW_InfoWatch #AgainstRussianLies
Zelenskyy said this applied to “all those who are supposed to work for the state and in the state.”
However, 🇷🇺 propaganda is manipulating these changes to legislation stressing that “shortly, women will be sent to serve in the army on an equal basis with men.” #UW_InfoWatch
In fact, now women can register for military service, but voluntarily. And from October 1, 2023, it will become an obligation for women from many professions/specialities. #RussiaUkraineWar
