668 claims
False90% confidence6 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Ukrainian president repealed the law prohibiting the sale of Ukrainian farmland to foreigners.Said by BThe claim that the president repealed the ban on selling Ukrainian farmland to foreigners is contradicted by the sources: the 2020 land-market law lifted the moratorium on domestic sales but kept the foreigner ban, and the 2026 State Department and presidential-office materials say foreigners still may only lease farmland, with any change requiring a national referendum. The claim also departs slightly from the post's wording only in dropping "Jewish", which does not affect grading; nothing in the sources shows a repeal as of 2026-10-01 or later.False88% confidence6 sourcesOct 1, 2026Ukraine repealed the law prohibiting the sale of farmland to foreigners.Said by BUkraine did not repeal its restriction on foreign purchases of farmland: the October 2026 U.S. State Department and KSE sources say foreigners may still only lease agricultural land, with any change left to a future national referendum. AAP FactCheck rated the same claim false in 2025, and the 2020-2021 reforms lifted the moratorium only for Ukrainian citizens and domestic companies.False90% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026Ukraine has repealed all labor legislation and eliminated the minimum wage.Said by BThe claim that Ukraine repealed all labor legislation and eliminated the minimum wage is contradicted by multiple sources: Ukraine's statutory minimum wage was raised to UAH 8,647 effective 1 January 2026 under Law No. 4695-IX, the Labour Code of 1971 remains in force, and a new draft Labor Code (No. 16010) was only at first reading in late September 2026. The passage is the claimant's own unsourced assertion, and the claim accurately reflects its wording, so the verdict is about the claim itself as of 2026-10-01.False72% confidence6 sourcesOct 1, 2026Russia invaded Ukraine to save Novorossiya against a Ukrainian attack.Said by BThe claim that Russia invaded Ukraine to save Novorossiya from a Ukrainian attack is contradicted by the sources. Authoritative sources describe Russia's stated justifications (protecting Donbas Russian speakers from genocide, denazification, preempting NATO) as baseless or widely discredited, and describe Novorossiya as an imperial land-grab aim rather than a defensive motive. The claim faithfully reflects the post's wording, which is the claimant's own assertion and not evidence.False90% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Georgian War in 2008 lasted one month.Said by BThe claim that the 2008 Georgian War lasted one month is contradicted by multiple sources, which put the fighting at five days (about August 7 to 12, 2008). The post's comparison implies a month-long war, which the record does not support, though the Wikipedia infobox's 1 to 16 August span and one Military Review line about 'less than a month' are the only figures that come close.False60% confidence5 sourcesOct 1, 2026Ukraine had the highest percentage of citizens with advanced degrees in the world up until the war started.Said by BNo source says Ukraine had the highest share of citizens with advanced degrees before the war. The World Bank says Ukraine's tertiary share exceeded the OECD average and many other countries, and a 2016 Kyiv Post piece ranks Ukraine fourth for higher education, which contradicts the superlative. The claim's 'advanced degrees' wording matches the post, so the extraction is faithful.False60% confidence10 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Ukrainian military was created by the United States.Said by BThe claim that the US created the Ukrainian military is contradicted by the sources, which describe Ukraine's national military being established by Ukraine's own parliament after independence in 1991, with US assistance coming later and mainly in the 2014 and post-2022 periods. The post's broader point that the military is a 'golem' created by the US is opinion, but the extracted claim is a specific historical assertion that the sources do not support.False60% confidence6 sourcesOct 1, 2026Lindsey Graham stated that the war in Ukraine is about killing as many Russians as possible.Said by BNo source contains the quoted line that the war is 'just about killing as many Russians as possible.' Reuters and related coverage show that Graham's 'Russians are dying' remark was spliced from two unrelated moments in a May 2023 Kyiv meeting, and he said the aid was valuable for security, not for Russian deaths. The post itself hedges the quote with 'something like,' so the claim is a firmer quotation than the passage made.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.False80% confidence9 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Ukrainian military has suffered 650,000 deaths.Said by BThe claim that Ukrainian military deaths total 650,000 is contradicted by the sources: Western estimates put Ukrainian military deaths at roughly 100,000–150,000 (CSIS, Reuters, Genocide Watch), and even total casualties (killed, wounded, missing) are estimated at about 500,000–700,000, so 650,000 is a casualty-scale figure, not a death toll; the figure only comes from the claimant's unsourced assertion in the passage, and the claim as extracted matches the passage's wording (the post's 650,000 figure refers to Ukrainian dead) so it is graded as the poster's claim.False60% confidence6 sourcesOct 1, 2026The Ukrainian government admitted to 250,000 military deaths in November 2025.Said by BNo source reports that the Ukrainian government admitted 250,000 military deaths in November 2025. The sources instead show Zelensky's government figure at about 46,000 killed (February 2025), and report that Kyiv does not disclose official casualty figures, so the claim is contradicted by the record.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.False70% confidence8 sourcesOct 1, 2026Volodymyr Zelensky was installed by the United States.Said by BThe sources show Zelensky won Ukraine's April 2019 presidential election with about 73% of the vote, and a fact-check rejects the claim that the CIA or US installed Zelensky or any regime in Ukraine as an unsupported conspiracy theory. The claim matches the passage's wording, so it is graded as made.False55% confidence7 sourcesOct 1, 2026Israel admits to 500 military casualties in the conflict with Hamas.Said by BThe claim that Israel admits to about 500 military casualties is contradicted by the IDF's own figures, which put soldiers killed since October 7 at 970 in data released on 2026-10-07, roughly double the claimed number. No source gives an admitted figure for 2026-10-01 itself, and one dated article cites 281, so the record on that date is thin; the claim also departs from the post, which says 'something like 500' in the context of a larger 2,500 figure the speaker gives.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.
