The propagandist mass media are promoting yet another manipulation that 11 men and 23 women military servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine turned to militants with a request to obtain passports of the terrorist organization “DNR”.
In order to give the provocations at least some plausibility, a note was made in the passports of the prisoners of war that they registered in the self-proclaimed “DNR”, which allegedly gave them the right to participate in the fake referendum.

“This is yet another manipulation aimed at promoting the Kremlin’s narrative in the occupied territories that, as it were, “many of the captured Ukrainian military want to join the Russian Federation,” the report says.
