On Sunday, russia's defense minister called at least four defense ministers of NATO countries (USA, France, Turkey, and the UK) and talked about the Ukrainian "dirty bomb."
Before that, the russian state news agency RIA Novosti, known for spreading disinformation and propaganda, published a message about Ukraine's alleged possible use of a "dirty bomb."
According to propagandists, Ukraine is preparing to "detonate a nuclear bomb" on its territory to accuse russia of using weapons of mass destruction and turn the whole world against Moscow. This information was spread synchronously by all known russian propaganda media within an hour.
