Why is the media reporting like this is actually happening?
It’s like they’re naive children. And theres even have other articles talking about how misinformation, intentional confusion and bluffing has been a huge part of the war.
Anything the Russians proclaim can only sensibly be taken with extreme skepticism. This is most likely an attempt at a trap
- ceejayoz 4y ago> Why is the media reporting like this is actually happening? Because the Ukranians have been running a fairly successful counter-offensive and pushing within artillery range of the city. It's quite clearly an untenable position for the current state of the Russian army. They're not going to be dumb about it; any withdrawal will show up on satellite, and will take time. Ukraine isn't likely to rush on in recklessly.
- dandanua 4y agoIt can't be a trap with the current intelligence capabilities. It's just an informational warfare, psychological games. They say it loud to keep attention to them, not to Ukrainian officials. They say it to appear as those who control the situation, like it's their "goodwill gesture". They want to remove the idea that Ukrainian army controls the war from the informational space. It's them who must be in the center of attention of all media, not their enemies.
