In early December 2023, the media and Telegram channels reported that the owners of the cafe in the Ukrainian capital decided to mate over the death of the pro-Russian politician. We checked how justified such allegations are.
On December 6, a former People's Deputy of Ukraine was killed in the suburbs Ilya Kivawho, before the start of a full -scale Russian invasion, left his native country and in the future actively Participated In propaganda broadcasts already from the territory of Russia. Ukrainian media with reference to sources Reportedthat the murder can be the National Security Safety Service of Ukraine.
The next day, a 12-second video dispersed over the network, shot, judging by the surroundings, in a certain institution of catering. On these frames in the Ukrainian-language menu of the business-lunch you can see a special dish of the day called Kivski Kivski, illustrated by the photograph of the ex-deputy. Judging by the design, the video with the signature “We went with a friend in a cafe, but here it is. We ordered the cutlet "could be published in Storiz in social networks.
The news of this action allegedly organized in one of the Kyiv cafes soon bypassed such media outlets as "Ren-TV","News","Komsomolskaya Truth","The news feed of Zaporozhye","Berdyansk news feed" And "Politicus". Telegram channels were also told about her "Observer"(182,000 views at the time of writing this analysis),"Putin in Telegram"(147 000), Voblya (133,000), "Sheikh Tamir"(120 000),"Alexander Semchenko"(84,000),"From the scene"(72 000) and"True Russia"(64 000).
In Ukraine, former People's Deputy Ilya Kiva was considered one of the main traitors. After the news of his murder, local Internet users published numerous memes. However, the study of open sources shows that the video of the cutlets in a kivsky spread almost exclusively on Russian and pro-Russian resources, but it did not arouse on pro-Ukrainian interests.
It is noteworthy that there is only one video on the Web, the author of which captured this item on the camera in the menu of the unnamed Kyiv cafe, although it definitely had to attract the attention of visitors. Voices, the sounds of cutlery and dishes are heard in the video, that is, the action takes place in a rather lively institution. Typically, there are at least a few copies of the menu in cafes or restaurants, which would make it possible to find out about the cutlets in Kivsky at once to many people.
Consider in more detail the menu itself. Firstly, there are two of them in the video: the main and the very menu of a business lunch with scandalous cutlets.

The spelling is noteworthy: Kivski cutlet. By rules Such adverbs are written through a hyphen and, unlike Russian, with a soft sign in the suffix: “In the sissy”.
There are no signs in a booklet for a business lunch that would allow you to identify the institution, which cannot be said about the main menu. The abundance of the names related to Armenia (salads “in Russian”, “Jermuk”, “Ararat”, “Anush”, “Van”, “Garun”, etc.), suggests that the video could be shot in the Armenian restaurant. Often one of the dishes is named after the institution, it also happened here: the letters “Criminal Code”, which can be distinguished in the left of the main menu, bring us to the Caucasian and Ukrainian cuisine “Jermuk", Located in the Podolsky district in the north of Kyiv.

How can you verify on the website of the institution, its menu and the main menu from the video completely identical. Napkins in photographs from reviews And the video is also very similar.

But there is no menu of the business lunch on the site of the Jermuk cafe. Most of the dishes from this booklet are not found in the main menu of the restaurant, and the matching ones differ in prices: mushroom cream-SUP in one case costs 110 UAH, and in the other-165 UAH, fruit drinks-40 and 80 UAH, respectively, and instead of one coffee from the booklet for 70 UAH, several types of price from 45 to 60 UAH are mainly indicated. We also note that in the original menu, the word “in Russian” is written in Ukrainian without errors, unlike the aforementioned example with cutlets.
“Checked” contacted the Jermuk cafe and asked to comment on the viral video. The manager of the establishment said that she did not understand how their menu hit the recording, and categorically refuted the existence in their establishment Cutlets in a quiva. “We are not engaged in such nonsense,” she said.
According to the TGSTAT service, the first Telegram channel to publish the video was November 7 at 12:52 Moscow time pro-Russian "Sheikh Tamir". This channel was repeatedly "checked" in distribution Fakes About Ukraine.
Thus, in the video, we see the real menu of the Kyiv cafe “Jermuk” and the fake booklet of the business lunch, and judging by the first frames, he lays out on the table only at the time of shooting-it was quite possible that he was brought with him, and then carried the author of the video.
