These photos caused outrage among some Russian propagandists. At the same time, other Russians began to invent that Budanov had prosthetics instead of limbs and to look for "evidence" in the photos.

A little while later, Budanov made a live broadcast during TV marathon and said that the russians had "underestimated" the fake about his injury.

"How do I react? First of all, I find it quite funny, and I react accordingly. Fakes are fakes for a reason, they are made to cause a certain reaction in the audience. But these are rather, let's say, underdeveloped fakes. Everyone realized that I was fine. Furthermore, everyone clearly understood that the fake would be debunked, and they would make fools of themselves," he said.

It should be noted that russian propaganda launched a fake about an alleged missile hitting the building of the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine and, as a result, Budanov's serious injury.

Earlier, the russians created a fake video in which Budanov allegedly plans to kill Crimeans.
