The Investigative Committee of Russia opened a criminal case against journalist Alexander Nevzorov under an article about the spread of fakes about the Russian army.
According to the investigation, Nevzorov “published deliberately false information about the deliberate shelling by the Russian Armed Forces of a maternity hospital in the city of Mariupol”. The journalist published a record of this on March 9 on Instagram, and on March 19 on YouTube..
The Investigative Committee emphasized that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation had previously called unreliable information that Russian aircraft had hit a maternity hospital in Mariupol.
Nevzorov himself has not yet commented on this..
