The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine posted a video on Saturday showing a military attack on the Eiffel Tower.
The video was supposed to be a message for NATO and it shows the Western city being bombed.
The caption in the video said "Just think if this were to happen to another European capital."

A woman poses in front of the Eiffel Tower. An explosion rocks the city. Several planes fly through the sky as flames surround the Eiffel Tower.
The camera pans from the Eiffel Tower to other French landmarks. Air raid sirens can be heard in the distance.
There is a caption attributed to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. If you want to give us air fighters, close the sky over Ukraine. If we fall, you fall.
Zelenskyy has advocated for a no-fly zone. He repeated that urge last week, as he described in a video how eight Russian missiles destroyed an airport.
He rebuked NATO for their decision to implement a no-fly zone, saying that it gave Russia a "green light" to strike at Ukraine.
Zelensky said that all the people who will die from this day will die because of you. Because of your disunity.
NATO said that a no-fly zone would escalate the conflict into a full-fledged war in Europe and cause much more human suffering.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week that any country that tries to impose a no-fly zone will be considered a participant in a military conflict.
It is not possible to do it on the territory of Ukraine. Any movement in this direction will be considered by us as participation in an armed conflict.
