Kocharyan - This is the Ukrainian operator of the Latvian news portal who moved to Latvia after February 24, 2022 Rus.lsm.lv. Kocharian decided in a new place to make a short feature film “Hope” about a Ukrainian girl who lost her relatives during the war.

Filming of the film Passed In several cities of Latvia, both Ukrainian actors and Latvian police officers took part in them.
In his Tiktok account, Kocharyan published the videos recorded by him on the set during the creation of the film. Viral Telegram-video on the supposedly staged actions of the APU special forces was glued from three Tiktok clips: here Soldiers in Ukrainian uniforms enter a residential building, here run along the corridor towards the film crew, and here The operator gives the command "Started!".

All subsequent publications have already contained the imposed logo of this channel. The popularity of the video began to recruit after its publication by the Colonelcassad channel. The author of the channel Boris Rozhin, who calls himself an “expert of the Center for Military-Political Journalism,” has repeatedly appeared in our analysis (for example, here And here).
