The TV channel of the Russian defence ministry has been ridiculed online after it published an interview on its website with an opera singer who died several years ago.
Zvezda claimed to have spoken to Elena Obraztsova as she attended the funeral of controversial journalist Sergei Dorenko over the weekend, the Russian independent media report.

Mr Dorenko, a supporter-turned-critic of President Putin, died last week while riding his motorcycle in Moscow.
Zvezda quoted Elena Obraztsova as saying that Mr Dorenko was an "uncompromising journalist", who either "spoke the truth or did not speak at all".
But, as many Twitter users were quick to point out, the opera diva has herself been dead since 2015.
