Pravda Ukraine
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urges fellow Ukrainians not to fall to emotions and rumours and to trust the Defence Forces of Ukraine,as the Russian side uses the fear and anxiety of Ukrainian civilians for its own purposes.
Source: the President’s evening address
Quote: “Russian PSYOPs (Psychological-informational operations – ed.) are always the energy for Russian ground operations. The occupier feeds on lies and the fear that follows the lies. Defensive battles are never easy. And they always become more difficult when the enemy manages to use fear.
So now it is safer not to be led by emotions, not to chase the headline, to double-check every news report, to look for information, not emotions or rumours, and to trust the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
Our warriors know what to do. And we are working with our partners, including our domestic Ukrainian arms production facilities, to ensure that our warriors have what they need to act.”
Details: Zelenskyy did not specify what kind of “psychological-informational operations” he was referring to.
