Necesarry to hide putins lies

That's an extremely ungenerous interpretation of the headline, and it's wrong.

They are necessary for the Russian war effort, because sanctions are preventing the manufacturing of a modern replacement, which is what the headline is in reference to.

Now, you may feel the war is unnecessary, and I would go further by saying it's prosecutors and planners should be hanged from the neck, until dead.

But again, that's not relevant here.
