Russians tried to publish an article about mobilization on behalf of the GUR.


The Odessa Online publication received a letter from the Main Intelligence Directorate requesting the publication of an article. This letter was sent to the editor-in-chief's email address under the title «It's Time to take back what is ours!». The letter stated that GUR employee Oleksandr Holodniuk promised a monetary reward for the publication. The GUR denied these letters and their dispatch to the media. It also turned out that the article contained false data and was a Russian "throw-in". This was evident in the Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security.
The article that was attempted to be published on the site of the Odessa edition described an unfavorable situation at the front and accusations against the country's leadership regarding mobilization problems. The article claimed that the military command was taking over mobilization powers and undermined information about law enforcement agencies and their powers regarding the detention of conscripts.
The Center for Strategic Communications believes that these articles are propaganda aimed at causing resistance among citizens to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as creating panic moods. The Center for Strategic Communications did not allow the dissemination of these pseudo-articles from the GUR.
Russian propagandists are also spreading fake news about the most massive rocket and drone attack on Ukraine due to the arrival of F-16 aircraft in the country.
