Russian propaganda sources are distributing a photo of a fake announcement about the evacuation of stray dogs in Sumy. The reason given is the “threat of North Korean occupiers”.

However, the Sumy City Council did not publish such information either on the website or in social networks. In addition, the ad does not contain any information about the organization that could be involved in the evacuation of dogs. As for the contacts where they advised to contact, there is a blurred QR code for a bot on Telegram, a hotline for the Sumy City Council and the Cabinet of Ministers. So the ad is a fake, and VoxCheck reports this.

In Sumy, no evacuation was announced for either citizens or dogs. Thus, Russian propagandists are trying to sow panic due to the possible direct entry of North Korea into the Russian-Ukrainian war.
