My post got removed despite it being from a reliable source (Ukrayinska Pravda- Media Bias/ Fact check.)

I am not looking to participate in a community where mods remove posts based on their feelings about the source, there needs to be a proof to the mod claim.

Why did my post got removed in this case?

How is the source unreliable, what is the mod proof for that?

    I’m not the mod, but that article is only parroting the numbers of a facebook post:

    Source: General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook

    The information is being confirmed.

        Why is credible the Armed Forces of Ukraine? Their main interest is win a war, not to provide reliable information to the public.

            Obviously, the Russian Army is who has the info about the Russian casualties, and the Ukrainian Army has the information about the Ukrainian casualties. And both are not credible sources.

            I don’t say that the articles using their publicized numbers of the casualties of the other country should be banned. Only those articles, without context about the numbers or the war, have no journalistic value.
