LVIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a law restricting the reporting on troop and military equipment movement, unless such information has been announced or approved by the military general staff.
The state news agency Ukrinform reports that the law calls for potential prison terms of three to eight years for violations.
The law bans “unauthorized dissemination of information about the direction, movement of international military assistance to Ukraine, the movement or deployment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, or other military formations of Ukraine, committed in a state of martial law or a state of emergency,” Ukrinform says.
