    The nonsense on this video.

    • Ukraine setting up vehicle repair pools on the bottom floor of civilian buildings.
    • Thousands of NATO troops in country setting up hospitals and the defense of the hospitals.
    • We blew up himars… look at this zoomed out footage of an explosion that dies not show the “before”. Only the video just before showed something launching from that location… and the cut in the video should be ignored.

    It’s just wild. I had never seen such a video. And in English so clearly for western audiences.

    Edit: ofcourse it’s posted by a Tankie from .ml

    The FAB-3000 still suffers from terrible accuracy. They completely missed the buildings in both of the videos I watched recently.

      You don’t know if the were actually aiming for the building, so stop guessing. It did much damage.

        It was later confirmed that there was an underground bunker there, so likely hit what they were aiming at. LOL

    For anyone wondering, this sort of blatant Russian propaganda is evaluated using a higher level of scrutiny but will be tolerated so long as the content can be reasonably interpreted as not intending to incite or belittle Ukrainians.

    In this specific example, the claim ‘an Ukrainian assault by untrained and inexperienced prisoners was annihilated with ease’ would be in violation if it wasn’t so absurd, unsupported by the footage, and laughable.

    Why allow it? Ukrainian ideals include things like ‘freedom of the press/information’. In times of war this has significant limitations ofc but I for one am interested in hearing ‘their side’ of events as they happen so long as it is done in a neutral voice. Many truths can be gleaned from lies for people savvy enough to read between the lines.

    Rest assured this is not an open invitation for Russian bots to start spamming propaganda. This community will NOT become a Tankie Hellhole.
