Malyar: Russia wants to discredit Ukraine to partners

Ukrainian Deputy Defence Minister Anna Malyar said:

Russia has focused its information weapons against Ukraine for two purposes: discrediting Ukraine as a recipient of weapons, and disrupting mobilisation and the service contracting process.

In order not to fall victim to these indoctrination, one must critically assess any information from unofficial sources, verify its credibility and ask oneself "what is the purpose of disseminating such information," she stressed.

According to Malyar, Russian hijackers have shown excessive activity around the topic of storming Bakhmut, replicating narratives aimed at demoralizing society and the military.
