Twitter has removed at least two posts from a Russian Embassy's account that had alleged that a recent attack in Ukraine did not occur.
The Russian Embassy in London tweeted Thursday that the maternity hospital that was bombed in Mariupol, Ukraine, was"non-operational." Twitter eventually took down the two tweets due to them violating Twitter's terms of service.
