Georgiy Tikhiy, spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, expressed outrage over the actions of social media platform X, which labeled information about Ukrainian children killed during Russian attacks as «shocking content».

The ministry representative accused the platform of trying to suppress crimes committed by Russia.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine accused social media X of concealing facts of aggression by Russia.

«Seriously, X? Since when is the killing of Ukrainian children by Russia considered «shocking content”? This is not about protecting users from graphic materials. This is an attempt to cover up Russia's war crimes. This is completely unacceptable, and this decision must be reversed», he wrote in his post.

Georgiy Tikhiy included a screenshot in his post to visually demonstrate how the social media platform hid information from the official MFA account.

The image shows that social media X hid a post with statistics about at least 616 Ukrainian children killed and 1869 injured since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
