To counter Russian propaganda, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is very active on social networks. Videos featuring Ukrainian soldiers are multiplying.
In one video, a Ukrainian soldier proudly hoists the national flag in a recaptured village. Volodymyr Zelensky shared the images of this video on its social networks. And this is not unusual. To glorify the reconquest of certain territories in the east of the country, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense has multiplied propaganda videos.
In another video, soldiers can be seen singing the Ukrainian anthem just before attacking the Russian army. In another, a soldier again hoists the national flag at Balaklia (Ukraine)one of the first cities in the country to be taken over. Another scene shows soldiers tearing down a Russian banner to reveal the Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko. This kind of epic content is nothing new. Since the start of the conflict, the soldiers have not hesitated to film themselves and ensure their own communication on social networks.
