"The Kiev regime continues its provocation in order to shift responsibility for the deaths of civilians killed by Ukrainian armed groups to the Russian side," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
As Barbashov noted, it is known for sure that from March to October, not a single civilian resident of the Snigirevsky district died from a bullet wound. Thus, we can conclude that the Ukrainians are trying to pass off the victims of the Russian Armed Forces as victims of the "Ukrainian punishers", that is, the victims who died after the entry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine into the Snigirevsky district in the period from November 10 to 15, 2022.
On January 8, it became known that the Ukrainian special services had prepared a large-scale anti-Russian provocation in the Kharkiv region: on the eve of Orthodox Christmas, graves were opened in local cemeteries, after which the bodies of local residents were deliberately thrown into specially prepared pits for further accusation of the Russian Armed Forces of "shootings" of civilians.
