"Nobody saw it in the war": Colonel of the Armed Forces declared a blogger fake for "military" (photo)

To spread: Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Anatoly Stefan drew attention to a suspicious fundraiser, which is actively spreading on social networks. It is about Irina Gotun, who presents himself as a participant in hostilities and a wounded military. According to Stefan, a video of a history of ATO service, combat wounds and problems with the back have collected millions of views and more than 250 thousand hryvnias.

However, as the officer notes in his Facebook post, numerous facts indicate that the voiced biography is not true. "She had problems with her back in 2013, as did the story with an apartment, which in different versions of the realtor stole, then a girlfriend. She had no combat wound and has a priori, as did participation in hostilities," the military wrote.

Stefan recalled that in 2015, volunteers paid attention to the dubious activity of Irina Gotun when she attended various volunteer points and organizations. Her name also appeared in the story of the Military Courier on fraudulent funds. Despite the criticism and the facts outlined, the blogger who spread the collection refuses to close it. "People on crumbs are gathering help, and here thanks to low bloggers, more than 250 thousand per apartment.

The main thing is to invent a good story about fighting wounds and make a report," the colonel stressed. Stefan also questioned a woman's statement about service in various units - from infantry and "Aydar" to mobile air defense groups. "For 11 years of war, no one saw it there. Everyone knows that it does not happen: an army is a small village where everyone knows each other at least through one," he emphasized.
