Twitter account of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine created a virtual character based on a cotton flower: Bavovnyatko. Cotton is called bavovna in Ukrainian and the suffix -atko/-yatko is used to make words for small nice things: bavovnyatko would be a little nice piece of cotton.

Or, some nice explosions on enemy's territory.

Why cotton (or bavovna)?

Russian media use euphemisms for explosions in their country. They call explosions "khlopOk" (stress on the 2nd syllable) meaning ‘pop’, ‘clap’, ‘crack’, ‘bang’.

However, when the first syllable is stressed, “khlOpok” means “cotton” in English (“Bavovna” in Ukrainian)

When Russian bots and trolls put “khlopok” into Google translate in order to fake being Ukrainian they got “bavovna” instead. So it became obvious that they were Russian propaganda bots.
