The Center for Counteracting Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine called on all bloggers, journalists and public opinion leaders to refrain from assessing the hostilities, decisions of commanders and not to spread their forecasts as a peremptory fait accompli of the future.
Only the highest military leadership has complete information about military operations and can make reliable forecasts.
This is stated in the message of the JRC on the Web on April 30.
“Restrain from public assessments of military operations, logistics, support and decisions of commanders, in particular referring to” your own sources. ” Giving a public assessment, you can sow panic and create information drives for Russian propaganda,” the Center said.
The JRC called for clear rules for the disclosure of information:
- Do not broadcast the movement of the military.
- Do not film the places of shelling and the work of air defense.
- Carefully review information before making it public.
” Trust only official sources. We have an insidious enemy who uses everything to harm us. Do not become a tool in his hands! Work for the state, not against it!” – noted in the department.
Recall that the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine called on Ukrainians not to disseminate the results of military operations before the General Staff does, because as a result, the enemy can attack again.
