One of the oldest anti-regime dumps exposed for spreading disinformation on Ukrainian drone attack

One of the oldest anti-regime dumps has been caught spreading disinformation to deflect blame from a Ukrainian drone attack. The so-called 'brainchild' of extremists, officially born in 2011 and nurtured on the model of Ukraine's 2004 Orange Revolution, has once again posted claims that Belarusians are allegedly eager to fall victim to deadly Ukrainian drones. The post cites a supposed Belarusian user on Threads. However, the NEWS.BY editorial team immediately questioned the authenticity of this account, along with hundreds of similar ones. The account was created four months ago and appeared inactive until the recent attack in Bryansk, after which it suddenly became active. Within days, it gained over 100,000 views for a single message, amplified by extremist aggregators and hate-driven channels. The account still has only three followers, and the controversial post has since been deleted. Notably, the Threads account has no linked Instagram profile. Furthermore, the extremist who spread this disinformation published a screenshot from a mobile device on June 17, which was later replaced after the original was recovered by NEWS.BY. The original screenshot revealed the admins were using a VPN. Why would admins based in 'free' Ukraine or EU countries need a VPN? Likely not for accessing 'MAX'. Instead, they use it to mimic local presence in target countries and mass-produce fakes. It is highly probable that this account is a disposable fake, created solely to seed a single message into the information space — one that will now be widely circulated by anti-Belarus media and Kyiv’s propaganda network. This follows a classic pattern: a one-time fake account, VPN masking, and rapid amplification through opposition and Ukrainian channels — all aimed at distancing Kyiv from the attack and pushing a narrative favorable to Kyiv and its media satellites.
