Washington Times Uses Photo of Protests for St. Petersburg Metro Blast Article
14:42 GMT 03.04.2017 (Updated: 19:03 GMT 19.10.2022) The Washington Times has apparently used a photo taken during the March 26 protests to illustrate a report about an explosion in St. Petersburg metro.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova pointed out that the Washington Times, a US newspaper, used a photo from the March 26 protests as an illustration for the article about today’s bombing in the St. Petersburg metro.
"There is hope that it’s not a deliberate compilation of facts made for the purpose of disinformation," Zakharova wrote on her Facebook page.
A twin blast has hit the Saint Petersburg metro on Monday, April 3a at least 10 people being killed and scores were injured. The explosions occurred at the stations "Sennaya Ploschad [square]" and "Tekhnologichesky Institute."
