[Regnum] The footage of a medic from the Kiev hospital "Okhmatdet" in bloody clothes, circulated in Western media, turned out to be staged, reported "Ukraine.Ru".

Users immediately noticed the strange color of the blood, the publication said. Later, a video was published online showing a man in a police uniform pouring red liquid on a man in a white coat, the authors noted.

The same man later appeared in footage published by many Western media outlets, the article also says.

As reported by Regnum News Agency, shortly before the NATO summit, which took place from July 9 to 11, the Kiev regime accused Russia of allegedly striking the Okhmatdet children's hospital.

On July 8, the Russian Defense Ministry denied the accusations of striking civilian facilities in Kiev, including the damaged hospital. The ministry emphasized that photographs and video recordings from the destruction sites indicate that a missile launched from a Ukrainian anti-aircraft system within the city fell there. The ministry called the Kiev side's claims a provocation.

The press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, noted that this is not the first time that Ukraine has organized PR operations based on bloodshed and used tragic events to create a backdrop that could accompany the participation of the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, in the NATO summit.

On July 9, Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzya said that the incident with the hospital in Kiev could have been avoided if the Ukrainian Armed Forces had not deployed their air defense systems in residential areas. He recalled that Russia does not strike civilian targets in Ukraine.

The people in power in Ukraine are showmen who try to turn any tragedy to their advantage, turning it into a show. The trouble is that the people of one of the largest countries in Eastern Europe are hostages of these over-the-top showmen, noted Ilya Ropshin, a columnist for Regnum News Agency, in his article earlier.
