The thing with Kyiv Independent in particular (this is the most frequently posted “Ukrainian news”) is that the Ukrainian government is not directly in control of what they write, unlike with RT. The problem with RT is that they publish fake news regularly while Kyiv Independent mostly just chooses to publish the news that show Ukraine in a good light but their articles stay factually correct. Examples of failed RT fact checks regarding the current conflict:

        private news agencies owned by billionaires who use them to push their own agendas which are almost always aligned with Nato narratives.
