This information is disseminated in the Russian propaganda media. In particular, it was published in the news agency RIA Novosti and in pro-Russian telegram channels. The report said that the Ukrainian military planned to open fire on Orthodox churches on the night of Easter, April 23-24, in several regions of Ukraine - Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Odessa, and Sumy. This fake was denied by Serhii Leshchenko, advisor to the Office of the President of Ukraine. "I warn you, this is a typical pattern of behavior of Russian propaganda - to blame others for what they are going to do themselves. Ukraine does not intend to commit such actions in these or other areas, to kill civilians, especially on Easter night," he said.
