How is that different feom posts talking about the qar citing ukraniains news?
Quite different. RT/Russia Today is a state-run thing, while the "Ukrainian news" that you are most likely referring to are private news agencies. You won't see such news in Russia Today about Russia: Kyiv Independent - Zelensky signs law destroying independence of Ukraine's key anti-corruption bodies, while they are being published in the "Ukrainian news"
In a war no matter who is the aggressor and who is the aggressed both will do propaganda, both would lie about causalities and who side has the upper hand. You post a link about how Ukraine media can criticize their president is internal affair which has nothing to do with the war
