Intelligence warns of a new information provocation by the enemy. According to the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, in the near future, the occupants are planning to distribute forged documents, allegedly on behalf of the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War.
These fakes will contain fake emblems and fictitious names of regional units. The documents do not meet official standards, and the officials listed in them have no relation to the Coordination Headquarters.
The aim of the provocation is to discredit state structures and manipulate the families of captured, missing and illegally detained civilians.
The GUR calls on Ukrainians to be vigilant, not to spread disinformation and not to trust individuals and organisations offering dubious assistance. In case of extortion of money for any ‘services’ related to prisoners, law enforcement agencies should be immediately informed.
The intelligence service emphasises that all assistance provided by the Coordination Centre is free of charge.
