A Chinese vlogger has been labeled a national traitor because "his behavior is not in line with national interests" after he shared videos of war-torn Ukraine. Chinese Embassy officials reached out to him insinuating he was being paid to post these videos.

And here it is: #China is sharing fake news about people in #Italy thanking the Chinese government and singing its national anthem: this is a totally fake news.
Remember that China also said that they donated tons of medical equipment: we have bought them.
linkiesta.it/it/article/202… This is what we have received from #China: is it a big donation or is it a big purchase? I'd say the 2nd.

Once again, I have to make a THREAD to fight fake news. This time the victims are the @SyriaCivilDef.
Yesterday, a pretty uknown pro-#YPG twitter account tweeted 3 pics saying that White Helmets were destroying a graveyard in Jinderes.
It was not true ofc. The original source [thanks to @NoorNahas1 and @ryanmofarrell] is a FB page (bit.ly/2JQsWdm) which says that Bahrar Organization and White Helmets were cleaning a graveyard.
This is the position of the graveyard: goo.gl/maps/Vep6KJ7i4… [thanks to @obretix].
