❌ News24 refused to publish Russian Embassy’s reply to an article of 21 Nov 2023.
Not that we’re surprised by that decision, we’re sort of used to mainstream media blocking Russian standpoint. But we believe people must be provided the opportunity to familiarize themselves with different views of what is currently happening in the world and to decide for themselves which one they follow.
☝️ The mentioned article (written some time ago) quotes the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, saying that over 10,000 civilians have been recorded killed in Ukraine since February 2022, 560 of them being children. The article is accompanied by a photo showing alleged “Russian strike at a residential building” (though the picture could have been taken anywhere in the world and proves nothing). Everything needed to convince the readership of deliberate attacks on civil infrastructure, carpet bombing of the Ukrainian territory, etc.
⚠️ Unfortunately, military action always results in human costs. Yet to comprehend what the outcome of strikes on civil infrastructure may be, take a look at the situation in Gaza. According to recent estimates, almost 16,000 civilians in total, with more than 6,600 children among them, have died in the enclave since the fighting began on 7 October 2023. 70 per cent of people killed in Gaza are estimated to be women and children.
‼️ Once again, 16,000 civilians in less than 2 months. Do you think that if Russian army really targeted civilians in Ukraine for almost 22 month, would this number be less than in Gaza? You know the answer. The numbers speak for themselves.

✍️ Ambassador of Russia to South Africa Ilya Rogachev responds to a publication in The Star newspaper
The column on historically significant events “Back in the day” reported that on 17 Sept 1939 the USSR “joined Germany’s invasion of Poland attacking its eastern borders.”
❌ This is nothing more than a myth painted by Western propaganda as a proof of an alleged ‘conspiracy between Hitler and Stalin’ – alongside the much-touted Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, and the so-called ‘Soviet-German joint parade’ in Brest.
