A lie without salvation: a journalist told how he came up with fakes for foreign media

The 17-year-old author of the stuffing admitted to Izvestia that no one in the opposition media had checked his inventions.

A criminal case on the rehabilitation of Nazism against Eidelman was opened on January 4. Then she was accused of committing a crime under paragraph "b" of Part 2 of Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Rehabilitation of Nazism using the Internet").

Prior to that, at the end of June 2024, the Moscow prosecutor's office also opened a case against Eidelman under Part 4 of Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Rehabilitation of Nazism committed by a group of persons, by prior agreement or using a network"). On October 31, a court in Moscow arrested Eidelman in absentia for rehabilitating Nazism and spreading fakes about the actions of the Russian Armed Forces. On December 29, the press service of the Moscow Prosecutor's office reported that an indictment had been approved in the criminal case against the historian.
