Kremlin spokesman Steven Seagal visits occupied Ukraine to spread propaganda
Global News
Footage shared by Russian state media shows the 70-year-old actor standing in what appears to be the wreckage of a building identified as Ukraine's Olenivka prison in Donetsk.
Actor Steven Seagal is pushing pro-Russia propaganda through the country’s state media, repeating Kremlin talking points in a video posted Tuesday.
Footage shared by Russian state media shows the 70-year-old actor standing in what appears to be the wreckage of a building identified as Ukraine’s Olenivka prison in Donetsk, reports Insider.
In late July, more than 50 Ukrainian prisoners of war were killed in the facility in disputed circumstances.
In the video, however, Seagal claims U.S.-supplied HIMARS rockets, fired by Ukrainian troops, were the cause of the blast.
“This is where HIMARS hit, 50 people were killed, another 70 were injured,” Seagal said in the video posted to the pro-Kremlin news site TVZVEZDA on Tuesday.
“It definitely looks like a rocket. If you look at the burning and other details, of course, it’s not a bomb. Not to mention the fact that Russia really has a lot of artifacts from HIMARS.”
In the video, the Under Siege star is identified as a special representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation for humanitarian relations between Russia and the U.S.
Since the prison’s destruction, Russia and Ukraine have been attempting to cast blame on each other for the attack.
