Is it true that announcements appeared in the Sumy region about the beginning of the evacuation of stray dogs?

At the end of October 2024, Russian -language resources distributed information about the reaction of the authorities of the Ukrainian region to the possible appearance of soldiers from the DPRK. We checked the reliability of this information.

As the Telegram channel reported on October 25 Readovka (811,000 views), in anticipation of the North Korean soldiers of the Sumy region of Ukraine, announced the evacuation of stray dogs from the region. It is understood that this is caused by the well -known love of the inhabitants of Korea for traditional dog dishes. In proof, a photograph of a street announcement was given. Citizens are offered to report street dogs in Telegram Bota or on a hot line.

The information also distributed "Suma news feed"And some accounts in"VKontakte" And "Zen".

October 24, 2024 State Duma of the Russian Federation Ratified The Treaty on Strategic Partnership with the DPRK, signed in the summer of the chapters of the two states. According to the document, if one of the parties undergoes an armed attack of one or more states, the second party will immediately provide her with military assistance. The fact that the DPRK sends several thousand of its military to support Russia in the war against Ukraine, on October 17 declared Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky. After about a week, this information was confirmed by authoritative world Media, US Minister of Defense, NATO Secretary General And (indirectly) Vladimir Putin, and on November 4 appeared news About the first combat clash of the newly arrived North Korean military with the Armed Forces. Nevertheless, it is not yet about their participation in the hostilities in Ukraine.

“Verified” did not find any signs of alerts about the evacuation of stray dogs from the Sumy region on the official resources of the administrations of this region And him center. Moreover, the news of evacuation was not distributed by any authoritative Ukrainian media. In general, the need to evacuate stray animals is doubtful, while even a full evacuation of people from the region was not carried out. Moreover, a significant part of the Russian territory bordering the Kursk region at the time of writing was under control APU.

On Russian -speaking social networks, only one photograph of the alleged announcement spread. With mass evacuation, it would have to hang in many places. In addition, in the photo there are no identification marks by which it could be said that it was made in Ukraine. This is an ordinary A4 sheet that can be obtained on any working printer. The QR code on the sheet is scabbled so that it cannot be recognized by the reader.

We turn to the content of the announcement. It does not indicate the name or logo of the organization that organized the evacuation of dogs. There are only contact numbers: 700-007, 0674968600 (hotline City Council Sum) and 1545 (hotline Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. The Cabinet of Ministers also did not place such ads in his accounts. And it would be strange if I had posted, because such questions relate to the powers of local authorities, not central ones, and citizens should seek the evacuation of animals to the latter.

On the same day, October 25, when the Ukrainian media began to appear in the news, a common channel Readovka, the last reacted At them, the event was postponed for an indefinite period.

Thus, the publication of the evacuation of Sumy stray dogs has all the signs of a fake. It is based on a single photo of a homemade announcement and is not confirmed by any official or at least authoritative source in Ukraine. The Readovka channel spreading her previously published Unreliable information About Ukraine.
