We urge you to use only verified information from official sources and not to spread rumors. After all, the majority of false reports is a part of a well-thought-out information war against Ukraine. The most common FAKES (according to the Security Service of Ukraine): Any claims of "surrender". Even if they are accompanied by edited videos or photos. This is a complete fabrication. A message that it seems the Security Service of Ukraine requires Ukrainians to go to the link in order to "pass the check". This link is similar to the website address of the Security Service of Ukraine, but it is fake. A notification that all conversations are currently being recorded or listened to and that "new communications" will be introduced. This is a fake. Rumors that it is necessary to turn off all electrical appliances at night and reduce electricity consumption in homes to zero. As if through the connection of our energy network to the European system. This is also a lie. Mass reports of an alleged evacuation order from the Ministry of Health. Such statements almost always come from the occupiers. In this way, they form a "living shield" for themselves, diverting fire from themselves. Do not help the enemy! Do not spread information about the movement of Ukrainian troops. You can harm those who protect you. No figures or deadlines for the number of troops and equipment. No part numbers, types of military units (nothing like "9th company", "6th separate battalion", "tank brigade"). No license plates or license plates in the frame even for half a second. No names of officers or famous bloggers at hot spots or at geographically remote points - this can be used to track the movement of parts or make bloggers involved in tasks. No pointers to populated areas with distances, road signs about rivers, tourist spots etc. Talk about Poltava region, Kharkiv region, as a last resort - about already known events such as the "oil base near Chernihiv" Do not show signs of identification, such as armbands or tags on vehicles. Do not provide information about crowding anywhere - from train stations to highways. Do not show the places of damage at the moment when it happened - you will be used as a gunner. Sometimes being the first to show even an important event is a bad idea. Do not share unverified information about the course of hostilities. Only the security and defense authorities of Ukraine have such data. If you see enemy subversive intelligence groups or saboteurs It is worth paying attention if suspicious persons: have a distinct/characteristic Russian accent; do not know the area; take photos/videos of the area; put labels; ask for a mobile phone to make a call. What to do: Remember their signs (clothing, appearance, physical features). Do not take photos/videos of these people under any circumstances. This can be dangerous! Do not show them documents, do not tell them the way. Do not give a phone number for a call, and if there is no option to refuse, then record the number they called. By all available means, inform the Security Service of Ukraine about the time and place where you saw the alleged saboteurs, as well as their amount, content of the conversation, numbers, color and marks of cars, direction of movement, signs. Report immediately: to the official chatbot of the Security Service of Ukraine or in Telegram @stop_russian_war_bot to the contact numbers of territorial defense in your region or by calling 102 If there are representatives of the territorial defense or law enforcement officers nearby, try to detain the saboteurs. It is worth doing this only if you are confident in your abilities and have a numerous advantage over the enemy. We trust the Armed Forces of Ukraine! Together to victory!
