‘The videos of alleged ‘Russia’s shelling and executions’ as well as other similar footage are fake and were shot by the militants themselves, said Major General Igor Konashenkov, the Russian Defense Ministry spokesman.
“All of the statements by high-ranked Western officials, which cite so-called ‘reports by the activists,’ as well as ‘flicks,’ showing alleged ‘Russian bombardments,’ ‘executions’ and other stuff are staged videos, produced by special film crews formed by militants,” Konashenkov said in a statement Tuesday.
The spokesman said that “it remains a question, why some media outlets were so eager to use them without checking.” “We have some advice for them – don’t ever fall for terrorist propaganda,” he added.’
