Ad verbatim: "Official information on territorial defence in Sumy! Soldiers are remaining in the city! No one surrenders to the enemy! Don't be fooled! Sumy and other district centers of the region are under our control! Local authorities."

Details : The head of the region also dispelled a number of fakes:  

  • video with a woman from the territorial defence - fake! Authorities control provision.
  • calls for surrender and information that the cities in the region "surrendered" and the authorities fled - fake!
  • we did not launch any negotiations with the enemy! 

Zhyvytskyi also added that ‘’while people were hiding in churches from shelling, Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchy) priests, for example in the church on Troitskaya (and we have information that this was happening throughout the region), misinformed our people. They said that Sumy region surrendered to the enemy.’’

The head of the region stressed that it was a FAKE and called on people to trust only official sources of information.
