In mid -July, 2024, a video appeared on the Web, allegedly proving that Ukraine falsified the consequences of a missile shelling, as a result of which the largest children's medical center was damaged in the country. We checked the reliability of the viral video.
On the morning of July 8, Russian troops dealt a massive missile blow to Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities. In the capital, according to official figures, Died more than 30 people, total around the country - more than 40. In Kyiv, during the shelling was partially Destroyed The largest children's hospital in Ukraine Okhmatdet, where, according to the country's Minister of Health, at the time of the attack They were 627 patients. Representatives of the UN monitoring mission They saidthat with a high probability of one of the buildings of the complex, a Russian missile hit. As a result of the impact on Okhmatdet Died Three people (two adults and a child), more than three dozen suffered. Talking about what happened, many foreign Media Used Photos of a doctor who disassembled blockages in a bloodied medical form.
On July 19, Runet became viral publications, according to which these pictures were staged-in Ukrainian Telegram channels, a video made by an eyewitness in the center of Kyiv and proving a staging allegedly appeared. In the post of channel "Sanya in Florida"(471,000 views at the time of writing this analysis) is said:“ In the video, an employee of the Ukrainian police is poured from a package of human blood in a medical dressing gown. The doctor - an employee of the Okhmatdet hospital, the photos of which were published the largest The world media (according to the link given in the post, there are no pictures that are discussed. - Approx. Ed.). In these photos, the whole back of the doctor is covered with blood. After the first publications of the photos, the network users drew attention to the unusual color of the blood. A pop -up video confirmed doubts about the plausibility of the pictures. A hospital employee acted as the so -called CRISIS Actor, an actor who must be plausible to portray a person who suffered and wounded as a result of the incident. Once again, Zelensky’s regime tries to imitate the victims, wounded and dead, and the Western media willingly pick up this. ”
Channel author "Zlaya Pruf”(169,000 views) spoke like this:“ Remember the heroic bloodied dentist, he is a children's surgeon from the Okhmatdet hospital, which allegedly fell in the Russian missile? Here he is, a bunny, they prepare him for shooting, smear it with canned blood. By the way, this, of course, did not come up with a cap, but their owners. ” Telegram channel Mash (1.1 million views) At the same time, he emphasized that a missile of the Norwegian anti-aircraft missile system NASAMS, which is part of the Ukrainian air defense system, got into the medical institution. In the channel "Two major”(201,000 views) added:“ But the fact that real donor blood was used for the production is really terrible. This is blood for sick children, but Kyiv does not give a damn when you can beg extra money from the West. ” Similar posts appeared in the channels "Russia now"(202,000 views),"Mordor's voice"(195 000),"Observer"(183 000),"Putin in Telegram"(183 000),"Uncle Glory"(175 000),"Voblya • News"(142 000) and"Ukraine.ru"(114,000), as well as in channels calling themselves a fact, - Fake Control (20,000) and "Anti -Face | Warp"(2200).
News notes on the viral video came out in the Russian media. For example, according to the publication Life.ru, the video shows how a police officer paints a doctor’s dressing gown with paint, not blood. “Moreover, this is done by an ordinary brush (it is not visible on the recording. - Approx. Ed.). By the way, after the first publication on the "hit of the RF Armed Forces", users drew attention to the strange color of the "blood". It turns out, not in vain, ”the site says. Newspaper "Komsomolskaya Truth"I released the material under the heading" The Nightmare Show of Zelensky: the bloodied people in the Okhmet hospital were played by the actors. The text states that the production was obvious almost immediately: “Because the blood in the air cannot keep so bright in the air, it is oxidized, it becomes brown and“ rusty ”, and here is a dude ... in a snow-white robe covered with bright red blood, is present everywhere as an almost main character.” The author of the article also added that the “acting peasant” is not at all a surgeon, but a dentist: “No, of course, when his teeth are tearing, he also goes blood, but he was not torn off the elephant, and even turning his back.” Similar publications appeared on sites "Notebook"," Reignum "(twice: here And here), "Morning South","Picabu"And in public in VKontakte (here And here).
To the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation They saythat the statements of the Kyiv authorities about the intentional missile strike of Russia on civilian facilities on July 8 are not true. “Numerous published photos and video frames from Kyiv clearly confirm the fact of destruction due to the fall of the Ukrainian air defense missile launched from the anti -aircraft missile system within the city,” the Russian military department noted. Publication "Notepad" insiststhat many "experts are quickly and convincing proved The destruction of the medical institution of the NATO ammunition. " In particular, it referred to the post Quasifactcheck project "War with fakes", Where it is said that Russia attacked exclusively military facilities, and the blow to" Okhmatdet "was inflicted by the Ukrainian air defense missile.
However, analysts of the investigation project Bellingcat And Other experts They came to the conclusion that a blow to the children's hospital in Kyiv was inflicted on the Russian X-101. The rocket that hit one of the buildings of the institution fell on the video of an eyewitness. When comparing the screenshot with the 3D-raider, the X-101 missile turned out that two missiles have common features and almost completely coincide when applying. "Agency" And "Radio Liberty"The words of military analysts are also cited, according to which, most likely, a Russian cruise missile was in the hospital.
A photo of a doctor in a bloodied dressing gown, helping to disassemble the rubble, was published on July 8 by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Igor Klimenko. The next day, a selection of such pictures with this doctor Placed In his popular (more than 600,000 subscribers) blog on the social network X Advisor to the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs Anton Gerashchenko. Pretty quickly it became known the name of the doctor who fell on these personnel - Oleg Golubchenko. “During yesterday’s shelling of Kyiv, he conducted an operation to the child. He was thrown by an explosive wave to the operating table, but he and his colleagues (anesthetist Yaroslav Ivanov) managed to do everything necessary to transfer the child to manual ventilation of the lungs (the child was under anesthesia). The operation was completed in another hospital. The child survived. Oleg remained to help to disassemble the rubble in the hospital, ”Gerashchenko wrote without a link to the source (previously similar post Published Member of the Public Council under the Kyiv city state administration Ivan Stepurin).
Shortly after the missile attack, many pro-Kremlin Telegram channels began to publish posts with Golubchenko discredit. For example, "Ukraine.ru"(118,000 views) called the doctor" a man in Ketchup. " “This wonderful man in a couple of hours managed to operate the child, fall on him with his back, rinse the whole back with blood, but do not stain his pants, finish the operation in another hospital, forget to change and return to Okhmatdet to disassemble the rubble, and also become one of the main characters of the covers for the western press! Later it turned out that the star of the show was not a surgeon, but a dentist, and usually patients in this case are in a chair, and not on the table, ”the post says. Channels "Russia now" And "Zlaya Pruf“They also emphasized that Golubchenko was not a surgeon, but a dentist, and surprised how the bloody spot turned out to be on his back.
On specialized Ukrainian sites indicatedthat Golubchenko is a dentist surgeon and has been working in the maxillofacial department of Okhmatdet since 2016. He is engaged not only in the removal of teeth and cysts, but also with the plastic of the bridle of the tongue and lips. The results of the work is a doctor shares In his Instagram.
Golubchenko told several Ukrainian and international media about how he spent the day of shelling. For example, TSN correspondent he reportedthat at the time of the attack he conducted an operation, until the end of which there was about an hour. “And then some kind of whistle, and I found myself on the floor, the glass flies, the windows are lying,”- Explained surgeon. In a conversation with the Ukrinform correspondent, a doctor Clarifiedthat I woke up on the floor 2-3 m from the operating table. According to Golubchenko, due to the breakdown of the ventilation of the lungs Five -month -old child with congenital defects The persons were carried out using A bag of output. Patient Not injured (he was covered with doctors), the baby managed to take it out of the hospital and hand over In another medical institution, the surgeons of which completed the operation.
From an interview with Golubchenko shouldthat, having received first aid and transferring the patient to his colleagues, he called his wife and ran to help in the analysis of the rubble. “I don't know how, I did not feel pain,” - noted The doctor added that the glass was pulled out of his back. “My colleagues immediately examined me, took a picture, took out fragments, sewn it up, and I went outside. I see that partially there is no block of one department, and there are usually doctors, staff! Everyone ran there to the rubble, there something was smoking there, ”- Remembering Golubchenko. That is, according to the doctor, on his form it was not children, but his own blood.
The above statements of the pro-Khmorele resources that the blood on Golubchenko was supposedly was a strange bright red color and did not darken, critics did not withstand. Even K. posts such channels, links to which were given Above, photos and videos are attached, where it is noticeable how the color of the blood on the dressing gown varies from lighter to darker shades. This is due not only to the natural darkening of blood spots on clothes, but also with the fact that different personnel were made at different times in different lights and published in different quality.
The viral video, supposedly proving that Golubchenko was not his blood on Golubchenko’s clothes, lasts only 10 seconds. During this time, the face of the two people captured on it has never shown. Moreover, the video is removed and mounted so that it is impossible to geolocate the location, since only a piece of wall is visible in the frame. In addition, against the background you can not hear any Soundstestifying to about work Rescuers in the nearby destroyed building of the hospital: sirens, screams, etc.
The general state of the form on the “doctor” immediately catches the eye: it is strongly dented, although on the genuine pictures Golubchenko's clothes look ironed even after his fall due to shelling. It also does not see the seam on the back on it, which is noticeable in almost all the photos and videos from Golubchenko taken on July 8. The same applies to the rear right pocket on pants. The hairstyle also differs: on a viral video, the hair does not fit a man to the neck, as if it were a wig.
As for shoes on a person on video, it is very similar to the one that is noticeable to pictures With Golubchenko, however, coloring in the form of black spots is still different. In addition, on the left leg from the video, multiple blood subclasses are visible, which dripped when painting a shirt. On real pictures on the left leg of a dentist surgeon from Okhmatdet, drops of blood are also visible, but not so much (the largest spot Covered bottom of the shirt) and in other places.
On the back of the “medic” from the viral video, you can also notice two red spots, in the form of not coinciding with any spots, which are approximately in the same area of Golubchenko shirt and are visible in original pictures.
Ukrainian center of counteracting misinformation, which also Studied The video notes that the “policeman” from the video does not have a waist system (weapon, holster, walkie -talkie, first -aid kit, etc.) and cover (a helmet cover), and the placement of a chevron with the symbols of the National Police violates the rules for wearing a uniform. Representatives of the Ukrainian authorities also noticed that the policeman was dressed in berets, although special police officers have long been issued special skills.
It is noteworthy that the video called a fake and a telegram channel related to the Wagner PMC Grey Zone (107,000 views), which nevertheless insists that the blood on Golubchenko’s dressing gown was fake. “The only question is why these people have different costumes: that the top of clothing (lack of seams) is that the bottom (lack of pockets). And different shoes - on one sneakers (shoes on the video are not like sneakers. - Approx. Ed.), And on the other, the harness of the "crocs". All this is easily located on better photos on the Internet. This, of course, does not cancel the fact that in Ukrainian photos a person with imitation of blood is also staged. But to make a production for production, and even so low -quality (they banned Google, apparently) - only harm the Russian information background, ”the post says.
Many resources mentioned at the beginning of this analysis claimed that the video first appeared in Ukrainian Telegram channels, but this is only partially true. The earliest publication with a “revealing” roller, which, by keywords, was able to find “verified”, appeared on July 19 at 12:57 Moscow time in the Russian -speaking channel ”Ukraine news"(24,000 views). Service TGSTAT He calls him Ukrainian, however, judging by the publications, his authors adhere to the pro -Kremlin position. Moreover, one day this resource is already mentioned In the analysis of “verified” in connection with the spread of a fake video about the attack of a boar on a resident of Ukraine (in that case, the channel also acted as the source of the news). After a couple of minutes, the video about painting with a medical form also appeared in the pro -Kremlin channel "Odessa Za Victory!"(4700 views).
Thus, there is no reason to believe that on the video distributed in the rune it is shown how to apply blood to the clothes of the Kyiv doctor before sending him to disassemble the rubble under the cameras of journalists and ordinary Kiev. For the first time, the video appeared in the proxy Telegram channels 11 days after the Russian shelling. The records do not show the faces of the people captured, the clothing of the alleged doctor differs from the one that was on the Okhmatdte employee after the attack, and the blood spots are not located like the original frames shot in the Ukrainian capital.
