Three fingers joined for the holy trinity as a trademark. A phantom and a machete in front of a map of “Great Macedonia.” Collecting signatures and donations to “defend the name of the MOC” (Macedonian Orthodox Church). The brutal murder of 14-year-old Vanja Gjorchevska from Skopje, which was preceded by another liquidation, of 74-year-old Pance […]

Photo: Screenshot from the video This video clip shared on Facebook was not made recently – i.e., not in November 2023, in a hospital in Gaza… It was recorded 10 years ago in a hospital in Cairo.

hoto: Screenshot from the video This event really happened, but not recently – November 2023, and not as an expression of solidarity with more than 4 thousand brutally killed children, as the Facebook post claims, but in 2019.

The post is spreading disinformation that the Russian military actions on the territory of Ukraine, which took place on 24 February completely unprovoked, are over and that, allegedly, Russia was the winner. The military invasion and the Ukrainian defense, however, are still ongoing and nothing appears to signal that they will end soon. In addition, […]

Photo: Enrique on Pixabay Neither mass media have recognized that “Ukraine is Done With”, nor should journalists be blamed for the thousands of lives lost in Ukraine, as the post claims. The journalists did not encourage the military invasion of Ukraine, Russia did, while Ukraine responded with the support of its Western partners to defend […]

The post is manipulative and presents false information with the intent to belittle the Russian aggression in Ukraine and the Ukrainian death toll. Moreover, somewhat of a comparison is made with the children killed, as an attempt to belittle the number of child victims in Ukraine, writing in disparagement that just one orphan child was […]

The post, in […]

Just before Russia attacked Ukraine in February 2022, Moscow falsely accused Ukraine of genocide against Russian-speaking citizens in the Donbas region. Putin used this narrative to justify the invasion of Ukraine, but with no evidence to support […]

Photo: pixabay.com Western countries did not vote against the “resolution for stopping military actions and attacks between Israel and Palestine”, as the post claims, they just did not support Russia’s resolution to condemn violence and terrorism of civilians, because it did not mention HAMAS attacks and killings of 1,400 civilians in Israel. The post does […]

The USA and Biden’s administration are not financing Hamas. The USA is sending humanitarian assistance for the civilians in Gaza, but it does not go to the terrorist organization that has several financiers, out of which the main is Iran.
