Starring Seagal: Kremlin propaganda “landing” at the site of the Olenivka tragedy

The central Kremlin television propagandist, Vladimir Solovyov, actively boasted about Seagal’s participation in the event on his “Telegram” channel. Among other things, Seagal was allegedly shown “fragments of American missiles that confirm Kyiv’s participation in the massacre of its military personnel,” writes Solovyov.

Siegals is a citizen of Russia since 2016. In 2018, the actor became the special representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia in humanitarian relations with the United States. In 2021, he joined the “Just Russia” party.

As announced, On July 29, approximately 50 Ukrainian prisoners of war died as a result of an explosion in the colony Olenivka on the territory of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic, but more than 70 were injured. In total, there were 193 people in the colony, most of whom were soldiers of the Ukrainian Azov Regiment.

In Kyiv, it is emphasized that Russia shelled the prison with artillery in order to hide traces of torture and murder of prisoners, as well as to accuse the Ukrainian army of “war crimes”.

Moscow claims that Ukraine fired on the colony using American HIMARS missile systems.

It should be noted that at the beginning of August, at the request of both Russia and Ukraine, the UN began an investigation into the Olenivka deaths, which can also explain Moscow’s propaganda activities.
