Fake A Ukrainian military officer shot a soldier for disobeying an order

A photo of an alleged "report" on the shooting of a soldier is circulating on social networks. The document in the photo states that the soldier was allegedly shot for disobeying an order. With this fake, Russian propaganda is trying to intimidate with "atrocities in the Ukrainian army" and discredit the Armed Forces. Previously, a similar fake was spread that, by order of the commander of the National Guard, "Ukrainian soldiers who surrender themselves are to be shot."

The anti-corruption center drew attention to the spelling and factual errors of the new so-called document, namely: the "molodshy leytenant" was called «mladshy

leytenant"; the surname Kutsyn was translated to "Kutsin"; "04.06.22h" - the letter at the end means "hod," and it should be: r. - rik. In addition, the "report" was written in the name of Colonel Dmytro Bryzhynsky, the commander of a separate mechanized brigade of the Kholodny Yar Armed Forces until January 21, 2022. Colonel Ruslan Shevchuk became the commander instead.
