Maliar explained the purpose of Russia's propaganda messages about "successes" in Bakhmut

Deputy Minister of Defense Hanna Maliar emphasized that the Russians are unable to psychologically influence Ukraine's decision-making regarding the Bakhmut direction and explained what the propaganda is aimed at.

The Deputy Minister of Defense wrote about this in Telegram.

"The enemy is unable to psychologically influence the decision-making of our command regarding the Bakhmut direction. Just as it is unable to demotivate our fighters. Despite the fact that all the enemy's informational messages about the battles in Bakhmut are aimed at this very thing," stated in the message.

Hanna Maliar pointed out the information tools that the enemy uses in propaganda: messages about his alleged success in various forms and types, and testimony about supposedly declassified plans and decisions of the leadership regarding Bakhmut.

"Analysis of these messages shows that the enemy cannot find effective narratives, so the information is more like testing all possible options. For example, there are already about ten versions circulating about what exactly “Syrskyi reported to Zelenskyy and what decision was made," summarized the Deputy Minister of Defense."
