Well, we initially thought the same thing about the Moskva, of it being fake news and all.

That said, it is suspect how "quickly" they are trying to pass this as true; there was a lot more caution around Moskva's.

Infantry veterans themselves, they allege that the brigade run by Hrulf — a nom-de-guerre he adopted for security reasons — is reckless, has little weaponry or protective equipment for the soldiers he recruits and no official relationship with the Ukrainian forces.

Hrulf is essentially building a “private army” with volunteers from around the world to defend the village of his Ukrainian wife and children, they charge.

“He’s endangering the lives of unsuspecting young Canadians who just want to go and see combat,” says Paul, an Ottawa-based civil servant who was the brigade second-in-command before quitting and joining Ukraine’s official International Legion. “It’s not right, it’s completely irresponsible, especially for a person claiming to be a commander.”

I remember reading about such private armies prior to the start of the war back in Feb when I was looking up Ukrainian army strength. It looks like there's still plenty of that going on.

It's just natural.. more people aware of media warfare and naturally got more caution. Moskva was true, and the "spirit" of some people got back up. It's not the first time tho, as Admiral Essen also claimed to have been hit. Yet later there was video of it shooting down something.

A finnish volunteer did an AMA in r/suomi and got translated by tanknet.org

The gist of it:
-Finns seem to think the only one who knows how to fight is them. Ukranians have good morale, but their equipment suck; if they were Finns they would have conquered Moscow already.
-Russians have bad morale, their soldiers, their commanders and equipment suck, too, and Finland alone could easily defeat a Russian invasion.
-Most of the western NATO veterans bolted after dealing with their first airstrike. They are only used to fighting with full superiority.
