On April 28, the Kremlin propaganda spread another fake about how “the Black Sea ecosystems are successfully recovering after the emergency with fuel oil”.
With reference to the press service of the Moscow Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, it was stated that allegedly after the December catastrophe with the “Volgoneft” tankers, “the concentration of pollutants in the soil, bottom sediments and bottom waters of the Black Sea decreased by an average of 50%”.
Naturally, such an “accurate calculation” regarding waters and soils is untrue, at least due to the fact that no one from the aggressor has systematically studied them since December, neither on the Caucasian coast, nor in the occupied Crimea.
However, the methods of the occupiers to “cleanse the ecosystem” allow us to understand another event, namely, today’s detention and delivery to the Alushta “police” from Anapa of the local “blogger” Yuri Ozarovsky.
The reasons for the repression are banal: Ozarovsky recently came to Crimea and posted on social networks with photos of fuel oil on the Alushta coast, after which, on April 25, the local “authorities” addressed the punishers with a statement about “abuse of freedom of mass information”, for which the “blogger” faced “a fine of up to one hundred thousand rubles”.
The demonstrative action with the “blogger in the jail” was not prevented by the fact that in principle this agressor’s article does not provide for prison, nor by Ozarovsky’s previous activities with the glorification of the criminal acts of the aggressor’s army in Ukraine, nor by the patronage of the Anapa deputy Amazasb Eiriyan.
Thus, the aggressor sent an unambiguous message to all social media users: all publications refuting the Kremlin’s fake news about a “safe resort season in Crimea” will now entail not only “fines” but also more dire consequences, even “despite previous merits.”
