Information is spreading on social networks that the Armed Forces have entered Kherson – what is happening
In the evening of June 22, information began spreading on social networks that the Armed Forces of Ukraine had entered Kherson.
It was first distributed by former Verkhovna Rada deputy Vitaliy Kupriy on his Facebook page.
From two independent sources it became known to me that our fighters occupied 4 streets of Kherson. The offensive continues, he wrote on Facebook.
Later, another ex-MP, Ihor Mosiychuk, hinted that the Armed Forces had some success in the Kherson area.
– Kherson. I recommend watching this Ukrainian city closely and waiting for good news, – he wrote.
In the evening, Oleksiy Arestovych, Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, commented on this as follows:
– We do not confirm or deny. Let’s see what happens next, – he said
Subsequently, the Telegram channel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The war with the occupiers reported that the entrance of the Armed Forces to Kherson was an information intrusion.
– The information that the Armed Forces entered Kherson is not true. Because most of the media have already started throwing this information, – it is said in the message.
Social media users suggest that information about the entry of Ukrainian defenders into Kherson was provided to discredit the Ukrainian media and catch fakes. Others believe it may be part of a guerrilla struggle in the occupied city.
So far, no official information has been received from the Ukrainian command that the Armed Forces have entered the city. As a rule, events at the front are usually reported publicly in a day or more, as this may affect the security situation in the region.
