ALL russian fakes 2025-2024
Fake: Zelenskyy's support among Ukrainians is at 4%
russian propaganda has been pushing the fake that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has very little support among Ukrainians and is only in power because of a harsh dictatorship.

Fake: sanctions on Russian fertilisers are destroying European agriculture
The pro-russian Polish media outlet Pravda writes that European agriculture will face extinction due to the EU's decision to impose sanctions on fertilisers from russia and Belarus.

Simultaneously with fakes about the threat from Ukraine, Russia attacked the Chernobyl nuclear power plant
On the night of 14 February, the IAEA team, which is permanently present to monitor safety, detected an explosion at the site of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant at around 01:50.

How Russia is dehumanising Ukrainians and allies with the help of AI
Since 2024, russian propaganda has been actively using artificial intelligence to generate the necessary illustrations for its false publications. Their task is to enhance the emotional component of the message. In particular, publications about Ukraine use ‘template’ negative images, such as rats, clowns, pigs or thieves. All of this is hate speech and incitement to ethnic aggression. For more examples and how it can be used against other countries, read the article by EuVsDisinfo.
Fake: USAID paid Hollywood stars for travelling to Ukraine
"Angelina Jolie received $20 million for her visit, and Orlando Bloom received $8 million. Sean Penn, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Ben Stiller also received money". This was reported by the russian media with reference to a story by the American edition of E! News. In fact, this video is fake. Neither the website nor the social media of E!

New Russian fakes about corruption in Ukraine
"Zelenskyy has admitted to stealing US money", said Irish journalist Chay Bowes, who is a mouthpiece for kremlin propaganda.

Manipulation: Europe is interested in continuing the war in Ukraine
This manipulation is being replicated in the information space by kremlin media and bloggers. "In recent days, leading European countries and NATO have said that support for Kyiv should increase.

Generating fakes about possible peace talks is part of Russia's pressure on Western leaders

Fake: The real purpose of NATO's support for Ukraine is to prepare for an attack on Russia
The German branch of the russian media holding company RT has published another propaganda article about NATO's desire to attack russia.

The expectation is that russia will allegedly collapse and disintegrate into separate parts so that they can be easily captured.
Fake: Trump poll results: 95% of Americans do not support Ukraine

Fake: Biden was never a real US president
"There is now confirmation that Joe Biden was never really the president of the United States because he never really governed.

Fake: Ukraine supports "terrorists" in Syria
Since the start of the revolution in Syria, russian propaganda has been generating fakes about the involvement of the Ukrainian government and Ukrainian special services in a "coup d'état" and "terrorism".

"Some of the most needy African countries do not receive aid from the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank because it is being used to support the Kyiv regime" is a recurring pro-kremlin disinformation narrative that russia uses to blame Ukraine for economic disruptions and to promote the idea of reducing international support for Ukraine. This lie should also be seen in the context of the COP29 climate talks in Azerbaijan, which moscow is trying to use to stoke anti-Western tensions.

Fake: Blind support of Ukraine broke Germany
"Blind support of Ukraine broke Germany. The collapse of the Berlin ruling coalition was a logical consequence of the fact that Kyiv was given even more money at the expense of its own country.

This is another false article on the kremlin's "RT English".
Fake: Zelenskyy intends to drag Poland into war
Lie: "Zelenskyy's intentions to draw Poland into a conflict with russia are reflected in his statements. Each time, the Ukrainian leader calls on Warsaw to take more decisive and even aggressive actions, especially when he demands that the missiles be shot down."

Fake: the military of Ukraine shot a mannequin with Trump symbols
Another fake video is circulating on social networks, in which unknown Ukrainian armed forces shoot and burn a mannequin wearing a MAGA cap - the political slogan of Donald Trump, who just won the US elections.

Manipulation: The President of the Czech Republic declared "war fatigue"
russian propaganda once again distorts the words of leaders and high-ranking officials of Western countries, creating conclusions necessary for its narratives.

There is a term "war fatigue" that applies not only directly to the warring parties, and everyone who supports them or does not support them."

Manipulation: territories of Ukraine in exchange for peace
The Financial Times published on its pages the news that the Minister of Foreign Affairs Andrii Sybiga, during his visit to the USA, discussed with allies the territorial concessions that Ukraine would make for the sake of peace.

A former employee of Russia Today legalizes Kremlin terrorists in a documentary
The documentary film "russians at War" is "subtle propaganda" and legitimization of the crimes of the russian military.

Manipulation: Ukrainian authorities pressure and bring legal cases against religious figures
Since the very beginning of its own aggression against Ukraine (that is, since 2014), russia has been trying to create an image of "Ukrainian radicalism", "neo-Nazism" and the like on the world stage.

Fake: A Ukrainian is involved in the murder of a volunteer at the Olympic Games
Pro-russian sources spread information that a 28-year-old Ukrainian was allegedly involved in the murder of a volunteer at the Olympic Games in Paris.

Shameful fake about the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany
"Baerbock uses the intimate services of an African", "An escort from Africa told about "unforgettable" meetings with a minister from Germany", "A gigolo for Baerbock: an African man told about intimate meetings with a politician", - such headlines abound in pro-kremlin media resources.

Fake: Ukrainian athletes were required to wear electronic bracelets at the Olympics in Paris to prevent them from escaping

Fake: A Czech volunteer admitted in court to his participation in "punitive operations" in the city of Bucha
Volunteer Filip Siman, who fought on the side of Ukraine, is on trial in the Czech Republic.

Fake: Coffins with the bodies of American soldiers who died in Ukraine are being delivered to the USA

Fake: the assassination attempt on Trump has a Ukrainian trace

Fake: The West is working on creating a "dirty bomb" in Ukraine
Fake: "Western countries continue to import radiochemical substances into Ukraine for disposal, which can be used to make a 'dirty bomb,'" the kremlin media quoted one of the russian generals.

Top countries that economically support Russian terrorism
We understand from the media that today the key allies of putin's terrorist regime are China, Belarus, Iran, and North Korea. But this is only on the surface. How will you react if you see the USA or Germany in this list. Molfar's OSINT investigations revealed many of the kremlin's secret ties to global democracy.
