Description of the fake LIE

On January 27, Ukrainian mobilized soldiers who were undergoing military exercises in Poland and celebrated the end of combat training on the bus, had a fight, as a result of which the bus overturned. This news story was spread by one of the propaganda channels on Telegram.

Refutation TRUTH

Indeed, the Polish side, with the support of the European Union, trains Ukrainian soldiers on its territory, but the story about the “tipsy soldiers” and the “fight on the bus” is completely made up by fake makers.

On January 27, at about 4 o’clock in the morning, a passenger bus from Ukraine on the Odesa-Warsaw route got into an accident near the settlement of Gołębie of the Lublin Voivodeship, as reported by Polish media and the police of Lublin.

There were 59 passengers (women and children) and two drivers on the bus at the time of the accident; 20 people were taken to the hospital. None of the reports mentioned servicemen from Ukraine.

This fake story was invented by the Russians to once again discredit the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the international level.
