On April 7, a Russian Kalibr and Oniks cruise missile ship in the Kaliningrad region sustained heavy damage and caught fire after being hit in Ukrainian military intelligence Operation “Fisherman.”
On the other hand there was video just yesterday of guys on crutches saying Russia was sending them back to the front. There have been protestors who are then jailed and conscripted.
The absolute best kind of propaganda is the type with a big grain of truth in the middle.
If I were Ukraine, I would most of the time say that we got information from enemy agents in the military, when I didn’t, and then when I actually did I would say nothing about it. Kind of take the legitimate level of it that is happening, and the legitimate fear and overreaction about it from the Russian commanders, and just toss a little more fuel on that already real fire every now and again.
That’s why they get published, but these things naturally happen if you force people to fight an unjust war against their will. Soldiers must be committed to the cause. Otherwise command mistreats the guys who have access to sensitive areas, weapons and infos. A lot of them will sabotage everything they can get away with.
My theory is that these stories are purely to make the Russian military paranoid of its own troops

Also true, the most effective propaganda is the propaganda you don’t know is propaganda.

As if they haven’t always been stories or not.
