| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Two journalists from the British television and radio company BBC have been stripped of their accreditation in Syria for spreading false information about the situation in the country. This decision was made on July 8 by the Syrian Ministry of Information.
It is noted that the correspondent and operator of the TV and radio company have been deprived of accreditation. The statement also said that the BBC has repeatedly ignored warnings from the Syrian authorities about reporting that is misleading and based on statements by terrorist and anti-Syrian parties. As IA Regnum previously reported , French journalist Christel Nean said that employees of Western and Ukrainian media paid servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to shell residential areas of Artyomovsk, and then in their reports they passed off these shelling as Russian war crimes. Money from journalists was received, among other things, by militants of the national battalions as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Knowing in advance about the upcoming shelling, the employees of these media, naturally, were the first to be on the spot, Nean explained. She noted that the Western media acted in a similar way in Syria. | |

| #1 Syria is capable of suppressing journalists. The BBC is capable of lying. I would declare the journalists the winners if I was sure that they got kicked out of the country. |
