Fake EU countries provide housing to all refugees from Ukraine due to the undermining of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant

Such information was disseminated in social networks, in particular, in the Ukrainian segment of the telegram. The reports say that allegedly in connection with the blowing up of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant (HPP) by the Russians, the EU countries provide material assistance and provide housing for all refugees from Ukraine. Like, housing will be provided urgently. In the publication, the authors add links to telegram channels, which supposedly contain step-by-step instructions on how to get help in eight European countries. It is not true. 

The fact-checkers of the VoxCheck project drew attention to the case, and determined that the heads of the EU countries did not make such statements. That is, it's just stuffing the authors of the messages. Probably, this is how telegram channel administrators seek to increase the number of subscribers by publishing false information. Also, fact-checkers were unable to find reports from European or Ukrainian officials about the provision of housing or other additional assistance to Ukrainian refugees in European countries. 

We recall that we have already analyzed several cases of the Russians blowing up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant. Among such cases, we have created a selection of propaganda messages in which Russians justified themselves and denied their crime. Also, analysts denied the message that the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant allegedly self-destructed.
