The war in Ukraine has led to outrage in the West, but in Russia TV viewers see a very different story.

Never was there a better illustration of the alternative reality presented by Russian state media than at 17:00 GMT on Tuesday. As BBC World TV opened its bulletin with reports of a Russian attack on a TV tower in the capital Kyiv, Russian TV was announcing that Ukraine was responsible for strikes on its own cities.

"Footage continues to be circulated on the internet which cannot be described as anything but fake," the presenter explains as the viewer is shown photographs of what is described as "unsophisticated virtual manipulations".Russia's Channel One presenter showed two photos of the same military vehicle - the top photo is captioned "Donbas 2014" and the bottom one "Ukrainian montage".

"We start with the latest news from Donbas. LNR [Luhansk People's Republic] fighters continue their offensive, having travelled 3km, while DNR [Donetsk People's Republic] units have travelled 16km," the NTV presenter says. Channel One's presenter announces that Ukrainian troops "are preparing to shell residential houses" and bomb warehouses with ammonia, in "acts of provocation against civilians and Russian forces".

"The tactics of nationalists who use children to shield themselves have not changed since the Second World War," says the presenter of a morning show on Rossiya 1's sister channel,"They behave like fascists, in the very sense of this word: neo-Nazis put their hardware not just next to residential houses but where children take shelter in basements," adds the correspondent in a video report captioned "Ukrainian fascism".

Russian TV sounds like North Korea its feeding the people lies and bullshit. Look at TV from round the world not just Russia. Maybe Russia TV could do a show from Kiev to show the truth. 🇺🇦

Bit like the BBC then!

No one is good. All have blood lust. The is no smoke without fire and you can clap with one hand. Basically one race has so much blood lust that all major world wars were started by them, first among them and then the whole world. Germany, US, Russia,UK all have the same genes.

The facts that BBC doesn’t want you to know.

I am from the Middle East. I'm worried about the Ukrainian people. They are human, the lives of all the people of the world are important. Respect human lives. Respect God for the creation of man

Very easy to edit the War footage Video to Putins advantage

It takes Daria Kaleniuk to make B Johnson look the inept human he is because he faces no journalistic pressure in London has been his mouth piece for so long he thinks he is more popular than he is. Given half the chance he’ll close the BBC.

That is why we must broadcast in Russian on the World service the lies and give the truth and speak peace nation to nation.

No just an excuse to keep quiet about the world invasion with biological weapons, infected people/COVIDIOTS, our Queen got attacked, I wonder how she is? hope she'll get better. and I know the cases are risen. BorisTheLiar CovidIsNotOver BrexitDisaster JohnsonTheCorruptPM

You don't will believe me but one day institution will investigate how divel - putin with totall propoganda and KGB force made country off zombi... fking ZOOMBI.

Putins propaganda sounds eerily like the stories the U.S. heard from our news when we invaded Afghanistan.
