Russian-Linked Bomb Threats Disrupt Voting in Multiple States
TL;DR Summary
On Election Day, multiple states in the U.S. experienced bomb threats at polling places, which were later attributed to Russian accounts by the FBI. These threats, deemed not credible, caused disruptions, evacuations, and extended voting hours in states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona's Navajo Nation. Despite Russia's denial of involvement, U.S. intelligence agencies also accused Russia of spreading disinformation to undermine election legitimacy.
