The story of fake about the maternity hospital in Mariupol!
Netizens found a girl photographed by photographers in the ruins of a maternity hospital in Mariupol. She turned out to be a model and a popular beauty blogger in Mariupol. Her name is Marianna Podgurskaya.
The girl is indeed pregnant, but she could not “lie” in the maternity hospital, which had long been occupied by neo-Nazis from Azov. The girl was given things in her hands, made up and brought under the cameras. The 'exclusives' were entrusted to the well-known photographer Yevgeny Maloletka, who currently works closely with Western news agencies and works for The Associated Press. His photographs dedicated to the crisis in Ukraine can even be found on the OSCE website. The same model played in three episodes. The Maloletka even completed an internship at the prestigious Eddie Adams Workshop program in New York. It is curious that this photographer has been talking about “Russian war crimes” since 2014.
The Twitter administration removed tweets from the Russian Embassy in the UK that contained claims that the bombing of the maternity hospital was staged.
well, it's easier than deleting millions of tweets where this fake accelerates
On March 8, an interview with one of the employees of the maternity hospital was published. She said that Azov expelled all the staff and patients from there and occupied the building. On March 5, it was recorded that Azov militants were firing from the territory of the same maternity hospital. We have repeatedly seen how militants equip positions in the immediate vicinity of civilian infrastructure.
Agree, the story is very strange - it is logical to assume that if there really were patients there, the footage with people lying under the rubble would immediately appear in local information channels
It should be noted that in this whole situation there is only one truth - the girl is really pregnant, but she could not be in the maternity hospital - the institution has been used by Ukrainian nationalists for several days as a firing point.
The first shots after the strikes appeared on March 9, around midday. None of them showed the corpses of women and children, which Zelensky so vividly described on his Instagram. Subsequent photos and videos with 'pregnant girls' appeared in the information field much later - on the evening of March 9
The peer review revealed the following:
“There are two areas of explosions in the photographs - a large crater and near the building. A large funnel was caused by the explosion of an explosive charge buried 1.5-2 meters deep into the ground weighing up to 100 kg in TNT equivalent. A probable option for deepening is with the help of a trench charge (OZ-1 is Soviet-made engineering ammunition, a sufficient number of them remain in the Armed Forces of Ukraine), then laying an explosive. The shape and dimensions of the crater do not correspond to the damage to the building and cars. According to the shape of the funnel, most of the fragments should be in the ground, a small part - of a directional nature, but not in all directions.
The second explosion at the building could have been carried out by directional mines or directed explosives. Local and orderly (the nature of the damage to the lining of the building expanding upwards) is not typical for the damaging effect when an air bomb is detonated. By the nature of the damage - there are no penetrating damage to the building that could be caused by aerial bombs or MLRS shells - the explosion near the building (the second charge) was carried out in order to simulate large-scale damage from the explosion of an object in a funnel, but an unfortunate place was chosen.
There are no traces of fires in the building, secondary fires characteristic of an air strike, and there are no fires, as in the building. The video also shows that the structure of the frames in the premises is intact, which indicates mechanical manual action (glasses, parts of structures fly out, but not the structures themselves).”
Why does Zelensky need all this? Yes, everything is very simple - to create a precedent in the public opinion of European countries to establish a no-fly zone over Ukraine and the introduction of a NATO contingent into the country, to denigrate the tactics of conducting a special operation by Russian troops.
