Russia demanded to convene a meeting of the UN Security Council because of the provocation in Bucha
[REGNUM] Russia demands to convene a meeting of the UN Security Council on April 4 in connection with Ukrainian fakes about the events in Bucha, Kiev region. Dmitry Polyansky , First Deputy Permanent Representative of the country to the UN, announced this on his Telegram channel.

"We will bring presumptuous Ukrainian provocateurs and their Western patrons to clean water," the diplomat said.

As REGNUM reported , video materials with supposedly corpses on the streets of Bucha have been published in Ukrainian public and media outlets. Internet users discovered that these "corpses" were alive, and the Russian Defense Ministry called the incident another provocation.

Meanwhile, Western countries decided to use Ukrainian materials to tighten anti-Russian sanctions.

Accusations of killing civilians are a provocation - Russian Defense Ministry
[REGNUM] Accusations against the Russian military in the killing of civilians in the city of Bucha, Kiev region, are another provocation. This is stated on April 3 in the official statement of the Russian Defense Ministry.

"All the photographs and video materials published by the Kiev regime, allegedly testifying to some kind of “crimes” by Russian military personnel in the city of Bucha, Kiev region, are another provocation," the report said.

As REGNUM reported, the Russian army left this settlement on March 30, after another round of negotiations between Russia and Ukraine. For all the time the city was under the control of Russian military personnel, local residents did not experience harassment. They could move freely and use mobile communications, as well as travel in a northerly direction. At the same time, the southern outskirts, including residential areas, were shelled around the clock by Ukrainian military personnel.

Also, the Ministry of Defense drew attention to the fact that the so-called "evidence of crimes" in Bucha became known to the public on the fourth day of the withdrawal of the Russian army from there.

Employees of the SBU, as well as Ukrainian television, arrived in the city. At the same time, the bodies of people published by the Kiev regime did not stiffen for at least four days and do not have cadaveric spots, and unclotting blood is not visible in the wounds.

All this also irrefutably confirms that the video footage and photographs from Bucha are another production of the Kiev regime for the Western media. Previously, this has already happened in Mariupol and other cities.

Russian Defense Ministry denies accusations of killing civilians in Bucha
[REGNUM] The Russian Defense Ministry refutes the accusations of the Kiev regime of allegedly killing civilians in the village of Bucha in the Kiev region. This is stated in the official statement of the department.

"All the photographs and video materials published by the Kiev regime, allegedly testifying to some kind of “crimes” by Russian military personnel in the city of Bucha, Kiev region, are another provocation," the message said.

The Ministry of Defense also emphasized that during the entire time this settlement was under the control of the Russian army, not a single local resident suffered from violent actions. Moreover, Russian servicemen delivered 452 tons of humanitarian aid to the Kiev region and gave it to the population.

Representatives of the Ministry of Defense added that the inhabitants of the city freely moved around it and used cellular communications. The exits were not blocked. All local residents were free to travel northward, including to Belarus. At the same time, the southern outskirts of the city, including residential areas, were shelled around the clock by Ukrainian troops from multiple launch rocket systems, tanks and large-caliber artillery.

The Ministry of Defense stressed that on March 30, all Russian units left Bucha. This happened after a face-to-face round of talks between Russia and Ukraine in Turkey. And on March 31, the mayor of the city Anatoly Fedoruk confirmed this fact in his video message. Also, he did not even mention any local residents shot in the streets with their hands tied.

“Therefore, it is not surprising that all the so-called “evidence of crimes” in Bucha appeared only on the fourth day, when SBU officers and representatives of Ukrainian television arrived in the city,” the Ministry of Defense noted.

Also, representatives of the department emphasize that all the bodies of people whose images were published by the Kiev regime did not stiffen after at least four days, do not have characteristic cadaveric spots, and unclotting blood is visible in the wounds.

"All this irrefutably confirms that the photographs and video footage from Bucha are another production of the Kiev regime for the Western media, as was the case in Mariupol with a maternity hospital, as well as in other cities," the department concluded.

Miroshnik called the staged video from the city of Bucha an example of the work of Western structures
[RIA Novosti] The staged video of "Russian crimes" in the suburbs of Kyiv is an example of the work of Western PR structures to promote fakes about the situation in Ukraine, Rodion Miroshnik, a diplomatic adviser to the head of the Lugansk People's Republic, said on a telegram channel.

So he commented on the video that appeared in the Ukrainian media and social networks, allegedly filmed in the city of Bucha, where the bodies of the dead lie on the road. Users noticed that the "corpses" move their arms and remove their limbs so as not to fall under the wheels of military equipment, and in the rear-view mirror you can see that one of these "dead" gets up as soon as the car passes by him.

"The conveyor works, but periodically fails, which the West, however, does not notice <...> They are impressed by the "crimes" themselves and the reason to shout loudly that the Russians are murderers. Reveals then no longer interest anyone, you can always dismiss and not be interested in the consequences," - wrote Miroshnik.

He recalled that the American investigators themselves reported that at least 150 PR structures and key Western media companies were working on promoting fake news about the situation in Ukraine.

“And here is an example of their work,” Miroshnik concluded.
