This is the best summary I could come up with:
The most startling effort at disinformation by Russian state media is perhaps NTV’s broadcast of a video with seemingly AI-generated audio of Ukraine’s top security official Oleksiy Danilov.
Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov, for example, told the rolling news channel Rossiya 24 TV: “Unfortunately, many of our citizens have not fully realised that the Anglo-Saxons, Nato members are simply waging a war of destruction on the Russian world.”
State Rossiya 1 reporter Andrei Medvedev saw the hand of MI6, which, according to him, “patronises the Ukrainian HUR” (Main Intelligence Directorate) and “chose precisely migrants to carry out a monstrous terrorist attack”.
“The British, due to their long colonial past, are very serious professionals in the field of inciting ethnic conflicts,” he wrote in a post on the popular platform Telegram, that garnered almost 900,000 views.
However, Novaya Gazeta Europe’s editor, Kirill Martynov, has said: “Russian propaganda is currently desperately seeking ways to link the terrorist attack in Moscow to Ukraine.”
“The Russian dictator bears direct responsibility for the fact that, having unleashed a war with Russia’s neighbours in 2014 and 2022, he now has no resources left to protect the country’s citizens from real threats.”
