Fake The Spanish magazine El jueves published a cover in which the Ukrainian military refuses to counteroffensive

Such information was disseminated in social networks, in particular, on telegram channels broadcasting pro-Kremlin rhetoric. Reports say that a Spanish satirical magazine recently published the cover of their magazine titled “What counteroffensive? We have the previous one to eat up and up!”. The cover itself shows a skeleton with ammunition, supposedly symbolizing the Ukrainian military. The authors add that the whole world is mocking Zelenskyi's plans for a counteroffensive. It is not true. 

Specialists of the Center for Countering Disinformation investigated this case and found out that such a cover does not exist. The last issue was released on May 3 under the number 2387, at the same time on the edited cover the number 2388 is indicated. We have repeatedly debunked fakes related to fake covers on foreign magazines/newspapers. 

Thus, propagandists seek to show that their rhetoric (for example, that Ukraine will fail the counteroffensive) is also being repeated in the West. So, readers may think that the public is really dissatisfied with Ukraine, especially when the authors use fake covers of humorous magazines, hinting that people are laughing at the situation in Ukraine and that the Ukrainian agenda for Europe is a reason to laugh.
