Claim 3: “Telemedicine consultations with specialists from federal medical centers are being conducted”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim that telemedicine consultations with federal medical centers are being conducted is explicitly mentioned in the TASS report. While another source mentions the drone attack generally, it does not mention the telemedicine aspect, and other search results for 'telemedicine' are generic and unrelated to this event.
