Users are actively sharing a video depicting a lot of plastic bags on the truck in the shape of human bodies, and one of those packages has a man who smokes in it. The other two men fix the packages. All this is accompanied by the signatures “the corpse of a Ukrainian civilian smokes after he was brutally shot by the russian military.”

However, this is a fake. The video is not related to russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

In fact, the video was made while filming a video of russian rapper Husky for the song “Never”. It was first published in his Tik-Tok by the artist-director of the video Vasya Ivanov.

This video was previously shared, saying that it was allegedly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
