Fake Germans created a social ad that suggests people wash only four body parts to anger Putin
Posts of this content are distributed on social networks. They are accompanied by an image purporting to be a social ad in Germany, urging people to wash only four areas of the body "to annoy Putin."
The picture also shows a child with the indicated body parts, the flag of Ukraine, and the inscription: "Wash only these four body parts if you want to annoy Putin. Water should also be saved for the sake of freedom." However, it is a fake. In Germany, they did not create social advertising that encourages people to wash less to spite Putin.
According to Stopfake, an extended search of this picture on the Internet shows that it appeared on a German-language Twitter profile as early as April 24 of this year with the caption: "For two years, you had to wash your hands so as not to endanger your grandmother! Four body parts in the soul are enough to annoy Putin and influence the war! (…) It's amazing how simple this world has become!". Commenters on Twitter asked the author to provide the source of this image, but there was no response. A further search for this picture only leads to publications on social networks on pro-Russian accounts. In mid-July, it began to spread information that "in Germany, Germans are offered to wash less for the sake of Russia."
