A screenshot from a BBC news report has been taken completely out of context to claim a journalist was only pretending to be on the frontline of the war in Ukraine.
Image shared on social media doesn’t show BBC journalist pretending to be on the frontline of war in UkraineAn image shows a BBC journalist as he “pretends to be on the frontline” of the war in Ukraine, with a woman standing casually behind him.This image shows just one moment from the BBC’s coverage of the war in Ukraine. The full video shows Russian shelling and Ukrainian citizens fleeing, and this BBC report has been corroborated by other media outlets.
The post highlights a woman standing in the background of the image, holding a large bag and watching the journalist “seemingly bemused”—implying that the BBC has broadcast footage which greatly exaggerated the situation in Ukraine., broadcast on 6 March, two weeks after war broke out in Ukraine, in which BBC journalist Jeremy Bowen reports from the city of Irpin, close to the capital of Kyiv.
The woman highlighted in the Facebook post can even be seen in the video crouching behind what looks like a piece of debris next to a destroyed bridge, before standing up to look in Mr Bowen’s direction and then walking towards the camera.: “This malicious tweet and others like it allege that I faked a piece to camera in Ukraine in March. The allegations are utterly false, #fakenews.
“Insult me if you want. Don’t insult thousands of civilians fleeing over Irpin bridge into Kyiv from Russian shelling and war crimes.”that their journalists had captured similar images to those used in the BBC report.
