A British agency employee was killed as a result of a Russian missile strike on a hotel in Kramatorsk on the night of August 25 Reuters. Russian propagandists, trying to justify this crime, actively spread disinformation.
The propagandist Yulia Vityazeva in her telegram channel initially wrote: “Kramatorsk. At night, he arrived at a hotel where British and American journalists were hanging out. There are no victims. Clean pants too.”
But then she quickly corrected herself with a reference to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation: “The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation struck during a special operation the point of temporary deployment of foreign mercenaries.”
Commenting on the missile strike on Kramatorsk on August 25, which killed a foreign journalist, Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov at a briefing with journalists stated: “I repeat once again, strikes are carried out on objects of military infrastructure, or in one way or another connected with it,” he writes ”IA Regnum“.
The Russian army is shelling “legitimate targets”, which are residential buildings, kindergartens, schools, hotels.
The hostile Telegram channel “Two Majors” admitted that the Russian army deliberately shelled the Sapphire Hotel when journalists were there. So they “punished the violators of the Russian border” (only the Russians know what they meant, because we are talking about the territory of Ukraine — incl. auth.). And “the inveterate representatives of the Western world were shown the principle of the inevitability of punishment in action.”
“A Reuters employee was destroyed in Kramatorsk (DPR, Russia),” writes the Telegram channel “Two Majors”, manipulating his military past.
Journalist Denis Kazansky noted that the Telegram channel “Two Majors” has more than a million subscribers and is the mouthpiece of the Russian Ministry of Defense. - reports Institute of Mass Information (IMI).
In fact, the deceased Ryan Evans worked in Ukraine as part of a team of foreign journalists as a civilian security adviser for reporters working in a combat zone.
Against this background, disinformation is spreading, according to which “all NATO advisers work undercover as journalists and diplomats,” the Second Ukraine Telegram channel notes, referring to unnamed Ukrainian media. “Such legends allow Western countries to publicly declare that their military does not take participate in the conflict on the side of Ukraine.”
On the night of August 25, the Russians fired an Iskander missile at the Sapphire Hotel in Kramatorsk, Donetsk region. In Sapphire, journalists who come on business trips to the war traditionally stop. That evening, a team from a British agency stayed at the hotel Reuters.
Three days later, on the night of August 27, the Russian army struck an Iskander-M ballistic missile on a hotel in Krivoy Rog.
Editions “Arguments and Facts” in the article “The hotel is in dust. A missile of the Russian Armed Forces executed dozens of mercenaries from NATO in Kryvyi Rih” continues a disinformation campaign to justify attacks on civilian objects.
“Following the Kramatorsk hotel “Sapphire”, which housed foreign mercenaries from Germany and France, in Krivoy Rog, the temporary deployment point of the “soldier of luck” from Poland and Canada was destroyed. In both cases, the buildings were completely destroyed, and their armed survivors from the “Foreign Legion” of the Armed Forces were destroyed.
Even death was added to the cost of mercenary services,” the hostile publication ironizes and recalls the blow to “Sapphire”:
“Witnesses say that one rocket was enough to completely destroy the building. Among the eliminated enemies, as it turned out, was the representative of British military intelligence MI6 Ryan Edwards (the authors of the article do not even know the name of the journalist - incl. auth.) True, he pretended to be a purely civilian “security expert”, but the Russian missile knows who is who.”
We extend our deepest condolences and thoughts to Ryan's family and loved ones. Ryan has helped many of our journalists cover events around the world; we will miss him terribly,” they said in a statement. Reuters.
All victims of the missile strike are journalists, citizens of Ukraine, the United States, the United Kingdom, Latvia. Serious injuries were received by the operator Reuters, Ukrainian journalist Ivan Lyubish-Kirdey. He was operated on in the Dnieper hospital, where he is now.
That evening, Polish journalist Monika Andruszewska was also injured. On her facebook page she said she was driving through the city when a rocket hit nearby. Under the photo of the damaged car, Monica wrote:
“This is what anyone can look like anywhere in Ukraine where the Russians decide to launch a missile strike. Not on the front line — just in the city in Donetsk region, where, despite the genocidal actions of Russia, life continues, there are cafes, beauty salons, children play on playgrounds.
According to the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, as a result of a night rocket strike on a hotel in the center of Kryvyi Rih on August 27, 4 people were killed and 5 injured. Shops, high-rise buildings, cars are also damaged.
The purpose of spreading such fakes is to try to present hotels as a military target. The enemy deliberately fires both civilians and journalists, who are the “eyes of war” in Ukraine and the world.
As reported ”Voice of America”, “Reporters Without Borders” calls for an investigation to be launched and include the incident in Kramatorsk in its own lawsuit.
National Union of Journalists of Ukraine reports that Ryan Evans became the 17th media worker to die in the performance of professional duties since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia. In total, according to the NSHU, the occupiers killed at least 94 media, including civilian victims and those mobilized to the ranks of the defense forces.
Institute of Mass Information Prepared accommodation tips for journalists on business trips. The key rule is not to gather in places popular with journalists, because they are all known to Russians.
