Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said that Russian occupying forces are preparing staged videos about the situation in Oleshky, according to Ukrinform.
Sybiha did not provide further detail in the cited statement about the specific content of the alleged staged footage or its intended purpose, though such claims typically accompany accusations that an occupying power is trying to shape public perception of conditions in territory it controls.
Limited details available
Oleshky, located in Ukraine's Kherson region, has been under Russian occupation, and claims about staged media content from occupied areas have recurred throughout the conflict as both sides contest narratives about conditions on the ground.
Ukrinform's report did not include a response from Russian officials to Sybiha's statement, nor further specifics on the alleged videos, their distribution, or supporting evidence.
Ukraine's foreign ministry has regularly raised concerns about information operations linked to Russian-occupied territories as part of its broader communications on the war.
