The dubious portal with content in Albanian, "Gazeta.thenews48hr.com", has published the article titled "'With love from Albania', Albanian missiles are bombing Russia".
Hibrid.info has verified the facts in this article and has confirmed that this title is fabricated, which does not correspond to the content.
This article contains a news story published by the Albanian Klan television portal "Klan.al" that concerns a story of a 22-year-old Ukrainian student who stated that he has found an alternative to financially assist the Ukrainian army through NGOs (here). This news was copied and placed in the content of the article of "Gazeta.thenews48hr.com", giving it a fictitious title.
He has decided to sell online the possibility of having messages written on the shells of the Ukrainian army that are fired against the Russians, with messages from different people.
On one of the shells, the inscription in English "from ALBANIA with LOVE" is visible, but it is not known who ordered such a message, since Sokolenko himself has stated that he receives orders mainly on the Telegram social network and to write the message of customers on a shell, they have to pay 40 dollars.
So, the claim "Albanian missiles are bombing Russia", made through the headline, turns out to be false.
