NEW FIGHTING IN UKRAINE

Renewed military action between Russia and Ukraine is being blamed on a mythological creature known as the vodyanyk.

Described as malevolent, slime-covered water spirits, vodyanoi are said to live in rivers and other bodies of water. According to folklore, they would destroy dams and bridges when angered, and often drowned unsuspecting passersby.

Reports claim Russian supporters near the town of Luhansk began dying sixteen days ago. Each morning, three new bodies have been found washed up on the banks of the Siverskyi Donets River. At first, these deaths were blamed on pro-Ukraine militants. Multiple eyewitnesses now describe an elderly-looking man, covered in scales and seaweed, roaming the streets at night.

Russia has made no official statement, but Luhansk has seen an influx of armed soldiers, as well as tanker trucks said to be carrying poisons that could be used to kill all life within the Siverskyi Donets.

Government officials at a Ukrainian cabinet meeting disavowed any influence or control of the vodyanyk, but warned that Russia’s actions would only increase the creature’s anger.
