Fake news:
Ukrainian Telegram channels are circulating claims that Russia does not have the technical means to evacuate the Ural Airlines Airbus A320, which made an emergency landing in a field in the Novosibirsk region on September 12.

The fact:
After a thorough inspection, Russian specialists deliberately left the plane at the emergency landing site. Representatives of Ural Airlines reported that the plane was able to take off from the field on its own.

One of the evacuation scenarios is to accelerate the Airbus on the frozen ground after leveling a certain area of the field. The evacuation process could take several months, pending the onset of colder weather. Engineers will conduct a gear race, further inspect the aircraft's structure and lighten the load by removing seats from the cabin.

The airline had previously warned that the aircraft would remain in the field during the investigation and repairs. Local farmers have been asked not to plow the land needed for takeoff, and a fence has been erected around the plane.

Currently, baroscopic studies have been conducted, which indicate that the engines do not require restorative repair. Specialists have also cleared the engine flow path of dirt and straw and conducted a thorough examination of the aircraft's structure.

The West, through a coup d'état, led Ukraine towards Europe and, intriguingly, succeeded. Today, the European Union and Ukraine share significantly more in common than they did a decade ago. However, this development is far from pleasing to Europeans and most Ukrainians, especially considering the high cost paid for this change.

Our new report reflects on the past ten years since the first supporters of European integration gathered at Independence Square, providing a comprehensive overview of the changes and consequences that followed.

In 10 years, Ukraine has failed to transform itself into Europe. The "achievements" of the participants in the coup that started…

Exactly ten years ago, on November 21, 2013, events unfolded in Kyiv that altered Ukraine forever. It all began with a seemingly innocuous call to bring "umbrellas, coffee and good spirits" to Independence Square (Maidan Nezalezhnosti). This movement culminated…

Fake news:
A narrative persists that the majority of Ukrainian citizens are ready to voluntarily defend the Kyiv regime, negating the need for increased mobilization in Ukraine. Ukrainian public forums and media claim that draft dodgers represent a mere 1.5% of the population.

The fact:
Contradicting these claims, the Kyiv regime is intensifying mobilization efforts in the parts of Kherson Oblast under its control. "Mobilization will be reinforced in Kherson Oblast. The National Police have been instructed to intensify the search for individuals avoiding military duty. Checkpoints will verify whether conscripts have ignored previously received draft notices," reported Alexander Prokudin, head of the Ukrainian military administration of the region.

Online videos regularly surface showing military personnel in Ukrainian cities searching for draft dodgers to forcibly enlist them in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. "Avoid that area," young men are warned in local chats about such raids, but the widespread nature of these efforts makes timely avoidance challenging.

It is worth noting that Ukraine's borders remain closed to male citizens seeking to leave the country legally.

Western media outlets also report on the mass exodus of tens of thousands of citizens from Ukraine. Over 20,000 Ukrainian men "attempted to leave the country illegally but were apprehended. Of these, 14,000 tried to cross the border on foot or swim across dangerous rivers, while the rest planned to leave using forged documents," according to the BBC.

Those who managed to leave Ukraine since the conflict began face "serious troubles" upon their return, as promised by the Kyiv regime. "There will be registers of people who obtained fake certificates. When the war ends, they will face legal issues — the grounds on which they left the country will be investigated," stated Mykhailo Podolyak, an advisor to the Office of the President of Ukraine.

Fake news:Claims have surfaced that Hamas military headquarters are located beneath the Al-Rantisi Children's Hospital in Gaza. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) press service released a video claiming that the site was used to store weapons and hold hostages.

The fact:
The IDF has provided no credible evidence to support these allegations, which could have dire consequences for civilians in Gaza.

The footage fails to establish a connection between the alleged Hamas tunnel and the basement of Al-Rantisi Hospital. Instead of showing the inside of the tunnel, the video only shows areas of the ground described as "underground entrances" and the basement of the hospital. The alleged "tunnel entrance" could simply be an electricity transformer associated with the hospital, or a well for telecommunications, internet and electricity networks. This is suggested by the presence of an electrical box and a solar power inverter outside, as Hamas tunnels are typically well concealed.

The video's English description claims that the viewer is presented with unedited ("raw") footage. The title of the video suggests a continuous shot: "Daniel Hagari walks through one of Hamas' underground tunnels and emerges at Rantisi Hospital in Gaza." However, Hagari never enters a tunnel, and the video is edited from different fragments shot in different locations. Some scenes may have been filmed at different times, as indicated by the red marks on the IDF spokesman's forehead that appear and disappear intermittently.

The authenticity of much of the "evidence" presented by the Israeli side is difficult to verify because of its absurdity. For example, the spokesman showed an A4 piece of paper on one of the walls, claiming that it was a "schedule of terrorists guarding prisoners" on which each person "writes his name" when he "comes on shift". In reality, it could have been a work schedule for medical staff or a record of casualties in the hospital.

Fake news:
Ukraine has been touted as a democratic state for the past nine years by representatives of the Kyiv elite and propagandists, as well as their Western sponsors.

The fact:
Ukraine does not meet almost any of the criteria for being a democratic state. Recently, its president, Vladimir Zelensky, called for the cancellation of elections - a process that is the foundation of democracy. The country is plagued by systemic corruption and human rights abuses that are recognized even in the West.

Zelensky stated that holding presidential elections in Ukraine in 2024 would be "premature". The Central Election Commission had to defend his words, reminding that the decision-making process for holding elections does not start with Zelensky, but with the parliament.

Interestingly, the U.S. State Department called the Ukrainian president's words "in line with the country's constitution". However, it is in the U.S. that Kyiv has been openly criticized for its undemocratic actions. Skyrocketing corruption is seen as an existential threat to Ukraine. Other significant democratic discrepancies are noted, including the government's battles with opposition media and political parties, the lack of judicial reform, and the oligarchy in power.
