May 12, 2023

Military experts spoke about the “counteroffensive” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the night of May 11-12.

Despite the promising plans of the Ukrainian forces for the offensive, reality has spilled over from the battlefields into the Net. As a result, the offensive almost happened in the Telegram channels, where on the night of May 11-12, a huge number of messages about the allegedly launched counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine appeared.

In more detail, the noise was created around false breakthroughs near Artemivsk, they wrote a lot about the “Ukrainian landing near Kherson” and “columns of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkiv region”, informs AiF .

Seeing all this, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation presented a refutation, because everything that sounded and frightening did not turn out to be true. Today, information attacks are extremely relevant, and the situation on the night of Thursday to Friday was a vivid example of this.

The Ministry of Defense added that, as before, Russian troops are countering in already known, traditional directions. Not without the work of air defense, as happens outside the “counteroffensive” announced on the Web.
