    The numbers do matter in the case, becase even if 2 persons are fleeing the country, it is enough to state “The news itself that people are fleeing the country”, right?

    PS. Russian-language source referring Khazakhstan officials, there are around 34k left the Khazakhstan border in the last week (98k in, 64k out).

    " is now full of people leaving"

    is not the number. You cannot jump from “qualitative statement” to “quantitative statement”, because “full of people leaving” might vary from several hours of staying on the borders (hundrets) … to tens of thousands. The numbers from Georgian/Mongolian/Belarussian officials, of couse, will likely be around true numbers, but they are missing too (in the article).

    Have you got any proof this information here is propaganda?

    What is the original source of the number 260k ? If it is “undisclosed source” (Kremlin’s security services) - that is non-proveable, as the other source can tell 1M or 5M ). So, it is propaganda (does not matter natos or russian) unless it tells some official person, which has access to that information.
