On May 1, 2023, reports appeared on the sale of garbage bags with ZOV symbols and inscriptions in support of “participants of their and their families”. We decided to check if this is true.
The Ukrainian media actively wrote about the "patriotic" packets for garbage: Nv.ua, "New Live","Reviewer" UNIAN. From Russian news news channels about this, in particular, told ""Read"(52,000 views at the time of publication of analysis) and Sota (26,000 views).
The first unusual garbage bags I noticed Sota, reporting this on April 30. According to the publication, the garbage bags with the letters of ZOV, which have become the symbols of the Russian invasion, is sold by the company "Paper-S", which promises to send for the needs of the war of the military 1 ruble with each packaging sold.
The reliability of this news could be in doubt: garbage bags are often mentioned in Ukraine in the context of Russian military losses. This began after the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky in March 2022 said that Russia does not want to take the bodies of its soldiers, and instead offers garbage bags for transportation. Ukrainian Agency UNIAN in several reports about the losses of the Russian Army It wrote About the bags that went back to Russia.
However, the link in the publication of Sota really leads to website Seller-companies from the Stavropol Territory "Paper-S".
It could be assumed that we are talking about breaking the site, as was the case with the announcement of Selling Ukrainian Chernozem In the shopping center in Moscow. But the same garbage bags can be found, for example, on the trading platform Wildberries.
On the site manufacturer, Avikomp, garbage bags are put into a separate section called “ZOV Project”. However, in this section Only two names: black garbage bags of 30 and 60 liters.
Thus, Russian online stores really sell black garbage bags with the symbols of "special operation". In this case, we are not talking about fake, but about ambiguous marketing.
