The Italian newspaper La Repubblica has spread information manipulation about the movement of the russian submarine “Belgorod”, which was picked up by other world media
Citing an alleged NATO intelligence report, La Repubblica writes that “putin seems close to raising the level of nuclear confrontation.” According to the media, there are fears that the mission of the “Belgorod” submarine spotted in Arctic waters is to test the “Poseidon” nuclear torpedo, often referred to as a “Doomsday” warhead, for the first time in history.
As the monitoring showed:
As of 3.10.2022, no such information was published on the NATO website
NATO has regularly recorded russian submarine activity since the Cold War.
The Alliance announced the modernization of navigation systems and weapons for russian submarines back in 2016.
Such unsubstantiated statements by the media only strengthen russia’s information terrorism.
