I am specifically trying to get any video materials first or another confirmation. There are many things I do not post that later prove to be fake, for instance this one proved to be fake. It was posted earlier today claiming a villager was hit with an artillery shell. Initially when I saw a video I had some doubts because: a. the weather was dark already meaning it was at least filmed much earlier (and no reports were made up until the end of the day) and b. his head was already bandaged while the foot looked unattended and with no blood. So I filtered it until further confirmation.No sources, yes something of this urgency sources are requested.
No one here takes US media at face value and it’s no different for Russia or the breakaway republics of Ukraine.
The 3 posts above I do not claim as true, but report them because thats what was reported by DPR/Russian media and went initially through my filter.
1st one about hospital being hit is a pretty huge and was reported by several media, so I expect at least some video to come up soon because of the scale. Still I made a reference that I am awaiting confirmation.
2nd one had no means of confirmation as it is a battle report. I was more interested in the fact that it was extremely close to the border and that this report itself is focused on this, perhaps unintentionally creating a tension for Russia itself due to close proximity to the borderline. I also checked initially the overall possibility of a diversion this deep into DPR, but several other sources explained that the borderline down south it thin and can be penetrated much easier, so this makes it theoretically possible.
3d one is a video report with multiple evidence, making it possible to track the building analyze the debris and further investigate if this is fake or not, but for the time being it wasn't proved to be fake.
P.S. in case you have missed, I am using URLs embed in a text. If you see a white text, this is an URL to the source.
