The Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine refuted the unreliable information about the head of GUR
The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine officially reported that the information circulated in the media regarding a quote from the head of GUR during a closed meeting of the Verkhovna Rada is false.
In its message, the intelligence agency urges media representatives not to disseminate unverified and unofficially confirmed information, especially regarding defense issues in the war.
'We urge all media representatives not to spread rumors, unverified, and unofficially confirmed information, especially regarding defense issues in the war.'
- it is emphasized in the intelligence message.
The intelligence also noted that political figures may distort information for their own interests, using journalists for this purpose.
It is distressing that information from closed meetings can pose a threat to national security and be used by the enemy.
The intelligence emphasizes that the informational aspect of the war in the context of the struggle against Russian aggression is extremely important. The state of war across the entire territory of the country requires special responsibility from all participants in the information space.
