  1. Smentita The Kremlin has used the Oreshnik ballistic missile three times before, hitting the Kyiv region and the cities of Dnipro and Lviv.

    IA Before the May 2026 Kyiv-region strike, the results show only two prior Oreshnik uses (Dnipro in November 2024 and Lviv region in January 2026), not three. The Kyiv/Bila Tserkva strike was the third use, so the claim's count of three prior uses is incorrect.

Fatti verificati

  1. Confermata Unknown hackers sent a fake nuclear threat warning through Ukraine's nationwide emergency alert app to residents in Kyiv, beginning shortly before 11pm local time on Sunday.

    IA Multiple results report that Ukraine's air raid alert app sent false warnings on Sunday evening, including a nuclear alert across Ukraine and radiation alerts for Kyiv, starting shortly before 11 p.m. local time (10:47 p.m. per CBS, about 22:47 per BBC). The claim's "unknown hackers" detail is not addressed, and the results mention Ukrainian authorities blaming Russia, which does not contradict it. Most results trace back to similar reporting rather than one original source.

  2. Confermata The Ukrainian emergency app said in a post on Sunday that "unauthorised parties" had interfered with its operation and that the channel had been temporarily suspended.

    IA Several results report that Ukraine's air raid alert channel, in a late-Sunday Telegram post, said "unauthorized parties" had interfered with the app and that it was temporarily suspended, matching the claim's core. These all appear to repeat the same AP wire report, and the results do not address the exact wording "unauthorised" versus "unauthorized", which is only a spelling difference.

  3. Confermata A message written in Russian sent through the Ukrainian alert system claimed Ukraine was about to be hit by Oreshnik missiles.

    IA Several results state that a Russian-language message on Ukraine's air alert app said the Oreshnik missile was incoming or in action, which matches the claim. PBS quotes the Russian text directly ('the Oreshnik is incoming'). The PBS, Times of India and NBC reports largely repeat the same AP-style reporting, so they are not independent confirmations.

  4. Confermata Mash, a Russian Telegram channel with links to the security services, said it had spoken to representatives of the hacking group Hitcore, who claimed responsibility for the attack; the report could not be verified.

    IA Multiple results state that Mash, a Russian Telegram channel with links to the security services, said it had spoken to Hitcore representatives who claimed responsibility for the attack, and that the claim could not be independently verified. These reports appear to repeat the same underlying report (the ITV/AP-style wording is identical), so they are not independent confirmations; the claim's specific details (Mash, Hitcore, responsibility claim, unverified) are all consistent across them.

  5. Confermata Russian officials claimed hackers had sent fake emergency alerts in Russia after gaining access to the app of the Russian ministry for emergencies, based in Moscow.

    IA Multiple results state that the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry said hackers gained access to its mobile app and sent fake emergency alerts (across 33 regions, at about 2:45 a.m. Moscow time). The results come from reports repeating the ministry's own statement, and they do not contradict the claim's core; the detail that the ministry is based in Moscow is not explicitly stated but is consistent with the Moscow timing and the ministry's official statement.

  6. Confermata Russia resumed its attacks on the southern city of Kherson hours after a six-day ceasefire ended at 11pm on Sunday.

    IA The results report that Russia resumed attacks on the Kherson region on Monday, hours after a local ceasefire that began on Tuesday and ended on Sunday, which fits a six-day truce. The exact 11pm end time is not mentioned, so that detail could not be checked. Most of these reports appear to repeat the same AFP-sourced story.

  7. Confermata Kherson's military administration said a Russian drone hit a hospital at 7.40am on Monday, and nobody was hurt.

    IA Several results state that Kherson's military administration said a Russian drone hit a hospital at 7.40am, and result [3] adds that nobody was hurt, according to officials. The results do not mention the day as Monday, so that detail could not be checked. The supporting results appear to repeat the same underlying report rather than independent sources.
