New fakes concerning Olha appeared as well.

In fact, the cover of the August 2 issue of Charlie Hebdo is dedicated to French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin. This can be seen both on the publication's website and on its social media pages.
Interestingly, after the lie was uncovered, RIA Novosti changed its original message in its Telegram channel, writing about "the possible cover of the August issue of the scandalous Charlie Hebdo magazine."

Smirnova is not a "neutral" athlete, as required by the competition regulations. The brother of the representative of the aggressor country is a military man. She is very proud of him, which is evident from the joint photos.
