And he still works as a media killer. Who orders the music? Let me remind you of a few facts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> On January 14, 2026, the SBU registered criminal proceedings against Volodymyr Petrov, a blogger, political strategist, and host of the YouTube channel &#8220;Icelandia&#8221;, who is also associated with anonymous Telegram channels, such as &#8220;Card Office&#8221;.<br \/> This is about possible treason.<\/p>\n<p> According to the published information, the investigation is investigating his activities, in particular the dissemination of narratives favorable to Russia through media projects. These include claims of a &#8220;civil war&#8221; instead of a Russian invasion, legitimization of the so-called &#8220;L\/DPR&#8221;, and discrediting Ukrainian statehood and mobilization.<\/p>\n<p> And that&#8217;s not all. It turned out that this figure was employed at the state institution &#8220;National War Memorial Cemetery&#8221;. And he had a reservation against mobilization. After the publicity on January 20, he resigned &#8220;of his own free will&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p> In April, information appeared about another case &#8211; regarding possible tax violations and money laundering. And now this character is starting to tell Ukrainians who works honestly and who doesn&#8217;t. In particular, he attacks Iryna Gerashchenko and Viktoriya Siumar.<\/p>\n<p> They try to present their international work trips as &#8220;shopping.&#8221; Instead of facts, they use fiction. Instead of arguments, they use humiliation and insults. And then all this is spread through anonymous Telegram channels and networks that are linked to the authorities.<\/p>\n<p> Familiar technology? When there is nothing to refute a person&#8217;s work, they try to destroy their reputation. But there is one problem for the organizers of such campaigns.<\/p>\n<p> Iryna Gerashchenko and Viktoriia Siumar have years of work, concrete results, and a reputation. They can be attacked. But what has been done cannot be erased with a stream of fabrications.<\/p>\n<p> But the situation is different for the perpetrators and customers of such attacks. Criminal proceedings are not sentences. Guilt is established by the court. But questions about Petrov&#8217;s activities have long gone beyond the boundaries of political polemics. And the most interesting thing here is not even what the Petrovs do through anonymous trash.<\/p>\n<p> The most interesting thing is who still considers this a suitable tool. Who sets the task? Who ensures distribution? Who covers up? Because the media killer is only an executor. And the customers, it seems, still believe that their power is eternal. That they can harass opponents with impunity, fabricate information attacks, and hide behind anonymous channels.<\/p>\n<p> In vain. Power passes. Reputation remains. As do documents, financial traces, and evidence. And when the time comes to answer, the phrase &#8220;I was just carrying out an order&#8221; will not help. And customers should remember one more thing. <strong>Executors change. Orders leave traces.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> By the way, the PR man for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/piarnyk-zelenskoho-petrov-znovu-otrymav-broniuvannia-u-teleradiokompanii-shcho-daie-porady-z-sadivnytstva-dzherelo-https-censor-net-ua-v3610178\/\">Volodymyr Petrov, has again received a booking from the mobilization<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p> Earlier, MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak said that the individuals <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/piarnyk-zelenskoho-petrov-orhanizuvav-provokatsiiu-bilia-budivli-nabu-odyn-z-fihurantiv-brav-uchast-u-aktsii-proty-siumar\/\">involved in filming a provocative video near the NABU building in Kyiv<\/a> had been identified.
