In a recent development, a fake video claiming that the cost of public transport in Krasnodar has increased has been circulating online. The video, created using AI, has been exposed as false by Yevgeny Naumov, the head of Krasnodar, in his Telegram channel.

Naumov clarified that the cost of public transport remains the same, urging residents to verify information from official sources before spreading it further. The fake video was sent by scammers, and no new information about the individuals or groups responsible for its creation has been provided.

This incident comes after a nighttime drone attack on Krasnodar, for which the Operational Headquarters of Kuban reported that the fire at the NPP had been extinguished. Naumov took to his Telegram channel to address the city's residents, thanking those involved in the aftermath of the attack.

It's important to note that the use of AI in creating such fake videos is becoming more common, and it's crucial to verify information before sharing it. Naumov's clarification serves as a reminder to all residents to stay informed and vigilant.

In conclusion, the video purporting to show Yevgeny Naumov announcing a rise in public transport fares is fake, and the cost of public transport in Krasnodar remains the same. As always, it's essential to verify information from official sources to avoid spreading misinformation.
