Russia spreads fakes about an attack on Chernihiv: the goal is to undermine trust and delay assistance

The Russian Federation actively spreads false reports about preparations for an attack on Chernihiv to create the illusion of a threat from Ukrainian forces. Ukrainian troops respond that they are ready for any provocations and emphasize control of the situation on the northern front. This information campaign is aimed at influencing the decisions of Ukraine's international partners and creating a negative perception of the military situation.

The Center for Counteracting Disinformation warns about the necessity to rely solely on official news sources and recognizes the information operations of the Russian Federation as a serious threat. Russian propaganda does not stop, trying to influence policy and public opinion through the dissemination of false data and statements.
