⚡️⚡️ US planning provocations to accuse Russian forces of using WMDs in Ukraine, Russian MoD warns

"The Russian Ministry of Defence has information about the preparation of provocations by the United States to accuse the Russian Armed Forces of using chemical, biological or tactical nuclear weapons. This plan has already been developed and is a reaction to Russia's success in the special military operation," the MoD said.

‼️The high probability of a US-staged chemical attack in Ukraine is confirmed by the fact that Kiev is being supplied with antidotes to poisonous substances, says Igor Kirillov, the head of the Russian Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Force.

☠️Western provocation with use of biological or chemical weapons is most likely in Kharkov, Kiev, and possibly Zaporozhye NPP, Russian MoD warns

🛑India issues advisory to satellite TV channels over 'unauthentic, misleading, sensational' coverage of events, including the Russian military operation in Ukraine

When it comes to the Russian military operation, it has been observed:

🔹Channels have been making false claims and frequently misquoting International agencies/actors;
🔹Use of 'scandalous headlines/taglines' that are completely unrelated to the news item;
🔹Many of the journalists and news anchors of these channels made fabricated and hyperbolic statements intending to incite the audiences.

According to the advisory, one of the channels aired fabricated pictures claiming to be proof of an upcoming nuclear attack on Ukraine, while another channel claimed that "Russia had given a 24 hours deadline for the Nuclear attack on Ukraine".

The advisory stresses that such stories seem "to be intending to misguide the viewers and arouse psychological upheavals inside them."
