Russian President Vladimir Putin today ordered his government to organize screenings in cinemas of “documentary films” about the attack by Moscow’s forces in Ukraine by February.

“To the Ministry of Culture to submit proposals to ensure the screening of domestic documentary films on cinema networks with topics related to the special military operation, the fight against the spread of neo-Nazi and neo-fascist ideology,” reads a message published on the Kremlin’s website.

Russia has justified its attack on Ukraine under the pretext of “de-Naziizing” the country, while the Kremlin accuses Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the authorities in Kiev of colluding with ultra-nationalist circles.

Moscow is also presenting its attack as a confrontation with the West because it supplies Kyiv with critical weapons.

This decision comes after several setbacks suffered by the Russian army in Ukraine, which was forced to leave the Kharkov region in the northeast and the city of Kherson in the south in recent months.

On Monday, the Russian military was forced to admit that it had dealt a particularly deadly blow to its troops in the eastern Ukrainian town of Makiivka, killing at least 63 Russian soldiers.

Russia has already passed several laws to control the debate surrounding the “special military operation,” as it calls the war.

Specifically, the law severely punishes anyone who spreads “lies,” in the view of the courts, about the armed forces.
