Russian media reported that in order to save gas, German crematoriums began to “burn people wholesale” - from five people at a time. We checked whether these messages are true.
About the new practice of German crematoriums supposedly reported One of the Russian-speaking residents of Dresden, sharing their history in Russian Telegram-channels: “I live in Dresden. A week ago, my grandfather died, he is 85 years old. <...> I was just in shock when I saw an ad on the door of the crematorium that they work by preliminary record and cremate only with groups of five people. ” Publication "Notepad" Added: “How to guess death and order cremation in advance, in the crematorium could not explain. And they refused the request to cremage grandfather. ” About this news Wrote Several Russian Media, and also told TV presenter Evgeny Popov in the program “60 minutes” on the channel “Russia-1”. According to him, after the cremation of several bodies at a time, “the resulting ashes is divided into five. Monstrous. But Germany in NATO. " Users of social networks notedthat in Germany the practice of collective cremation has already been used once.
Lack of gas in Europe due to anti-Russian sanctions I became constant theme of Russian propaganda. Russian media regularly ReportHow the European Union suffers from the rise in the cost of fuel, gas and electricity-and all because of the sanctions that Europe itself introduced against Russia. One of these examples I became The news of group cremations in Dresden.
A resident of Dresden, allegedly sharing the story in Telegram, also applied photo Ads in German, which he saw on the door of the crematorium: "Dear customers, in order to save energy resources, we offer cremation only in groups of five people by prior recording." The poster posted the logo of the funeral bureau Bestattungshaus werner billing In Saxony.
On site The funeral house lists the services provided by them, such as the selection of the coffin, holding a funeral ceremony, ordering flowers, solving bureaucratic issues, etc. There is no cremation in this list. By words Director of Werner Billing Uwe Billing, there is no crematorium in his funeral bureau at all.
In addition, according to German law About cemeteries and burials, cremation can only be carried out in the crematoriums of cemeteries, and not in the funeral bureau. Group cremation in Germany too Forbidden. Our German colleagues from the publication Correctiv We requested a comment from the Ministry of Social Protection of Saxony, whose duties include regulation of burials. According to spokesman Juliana Morgenrot, group cremation is contrary to laws Saxony. And even from a technical point of view, it is impossible - only one coffin is placed in the cremation furnace.
The earliest publication With a fake poster appeared in the Telegram channel of publicist Armen Gasparyan, and already from there the fake scattered down the rune. Most likely, photography and video The ads hanging on the door are genuine, since the digital analysis did not show signs of photomanipulation. Only, apparently, this poster was created not by the funeral bureau of Werner Billing, but by an unknown person for propaganda. In fact, information on the poster is not true and group cremations in Germany are not practiced even in conditions of gas savings.
