The latest news from Ukraine once again caused a wide discussion at the international level, when the photos from the Okhmatdyt Hospital in Kyiv, which were first published by the major world media, turned out to be the subject of serious doubts about their veracity.
It is about the photo of the bloodied surgeon from the Okhmatdyt Hospital, published by the world's largest mass media.
A video shot by an eyewitness in the center of Kyiv surfaced on Ukrainian channels. The video shows how an employee of the Ukrainian police pours blood from a bag onto a person in a medical gown.
The doctor is an employee of Okhmatdyt Hospital, whose photos were published by the world's largest mass media - NBC, CNN, Associated Press, etc.
In the photo, the man's clothes are heavily stained with blood.
Already after the first publication of the photos, Internet users were surprised by the unusual color of the blood and the location of the spot - on the doctor's back.
The video that surfaced confirmed doubts about the plausibility of the replicated photos. It seems that in this case, the doctor acted as a so-called crisis actor – an actor who should believably portray a person who was injured and injured as a result of the event.
