[Meta] How does mods remove posts based on sources?
My post got removed despite it being from a reliable source (Ukrayinska Pravda- Media Bias/ Fact check.)
I am not looking to participate in a community where mods remove posts based on their feelings about the source, there needs to be a proof to the mod claim.
Why did my post got removed in this case?
How is the source unreliable, what is the mod proof for that?

Why is credible the Armed Forces of Ukraine? Their main interest is win a war, not to provide reliable information to the public.

Obviously, the Russian Army is who has the info about the Russian casualties, and the Ukrainian Army has the information about the Ukrainian casualties. And both are not credible sources.
I don't say that the articles using their publicized numbers of the casualties of the other country should be banned. Only those articles, without context about the numbers or the war, have no journalistic value.
They have been shown by many agencies to be credible, Both the British ministry of defense and Pentagon have posted numbers on occasion that are not far off.
Being a governing body of a party involved, their claims are newsworthy regardless of credibility. They are a primary source. If russia posted numbers I would say the same thing if only to have something to laugh at. Whether the info is credible is secondary.
I've seen video of a general reporting to Putin, where he claimed they had destroyed 50 Ukrainian tanks in 1 battle!
Russian numbers are so obviously fake, question is if this really were the numbers they gave Putin?
But still if Russia post numbers, they are news, because we would try to interpret what the meaning of even posting false numbers is.
