On 27 July, on the 1249th day of the full-scale war, our editorial office recorded:
The Main Department of the State Emergencies Service of Odessa reported that it did not report any results of mine clearance. We remind you, look for information on the official pages of rescuers, and forwarded messages in messengers be sure to check.
Anonymous telegram channels write that the Crimean Tatars are not staging protests against the occupiers, which the authorities allegedly expected them to do, and only Ukrainians are against it. Thus, the propagandists are trying to manipulate the opinion about Crimea and contrast the two peoples. Representatives of the Crimean Tatar community in Kherson Oblast and Crimea are systematically persecuted for resisting the occupants. On March 6, Crimean Tatars staged a protest in Novoalekseevka, Kherson Oblast. The Russians, on the other hand, conduct searches and detain activists, such as on April 15, Ukrinform writes. The Crimean Human Rights Group reminded that about 230 political prisoners are already serving sentences in prisons in Crimea, while throughout Russia this figure is ten times higher.
Anonymous telegram channels disseminate theses about the alleged desire of large and self-sufficient communities to be as independent as possible, about the flourishing of separatism in Ukraine, as well as about the "hand of the Kremlin" and the great role of decentralization reform in this. The message is manipulative because "the flourishing of separatism" is not supported by any fact. According to a sociological study by the Razumkov Center on the 30th anniversary of Ukrainian independence, only 11% of citizens primarily associate themselves with the region in which they live, 19% with the locality, and 59% with Ukraine as a whole. The same study showed that 8% said that Ukrainians do not have anything in common.
The Kremlin media spread disinformation materials about how "the Ukrainian regime, imitating the Third Reich, sends children to war," according to the Center for Countering Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine. For this purpose, they use videos imitating interviews with children deported from Ukraine during the war.
According to the State Service for Special Communications and Information Protection, the main targets of the enemy are first of all civil servants, whose phones, according to the occupiers, can be used to collect confidential information.
