Sorry, isn't Pravda a literal Kremlin disinfo op? I'm not sure we should be posting anything about the Ukraine war (or, frankly, anything at all) from a Russian state-owned propaganda outlet...

Ukrainska Pravda has no relation at all to pravda.ru as far as i'm aware

Thanks, I wasn't aware of them, and didn't find an entry on them when looking up on mediabiasfactcheck.com. I wonder if the naming is intentional or just a coincidence around the word "Truth".

its founder, Georgiy Gongadze, was a late-90s crusader for freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and anti-corruption initiatives in Ukraine and was likely murdered at the behest of the state for his reporting. i think the name is fairly straightforward
