Jail terms over 'fake' army information in new Russian law
The lower chamber of the Russian parliament, the State Duma, has
unanimously passed a law which makes it a jailable offence to spread
"fake" information about the armed forces.
A total of 401 lawmakers voted in favour of the bill, with no votes
against it or abstentions, Interfax news agency reported.
The law still needs approval from the upper house tomorrow.
If and when it comes into effect, there will be fines and jail terms of
up to 15 years for those who intentionally spread false information
about the armed forces that has a serious impact, according to a
statement by the lower house. Russian TV staff walk off set after final broadcast As we just reported, a new law in Russia is set to punish "fake" information with jail sentences of up to 15 years. On Thursday, one of Russia’s last independent news outlets TV Rain stopped broadcasting indefinitely after coming under pressure for its coverage of the invasion. The channel, also know as Dozhd, ended its final broadcast by showing staff walking off set. Russia's telecommunications regulator accused the channel of "inciting extremism, abusing Russian citizens, causing mass disruption of public calm and safety, and encouraging protests". https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-europe-60532634 mynd44 oam4j lalasticlala seun |

The only possible and least chaotic way to stop this destruction is to go down the path of diplomatic mediation. Unfortunately, right now other hypocrite countries helping only through weapons to have "peace" |
