France uncovers major Russian disinformation campaign.

France has uncovered a major disinformation campaign by Russia, which involved posting false news items disguised as articles by prominent media, in a "hybrid" war waged by Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine. The campaign was carried out by "Russian actors" with "state entities or entities affiliated to the Russian state" then working to amplify its impact. At least four French daily newspapers and other major media were targeted, particularly German ones. The campaign aimed to spread Kremlin propaganda and mislead the general public about the reality of the war in Ukraine and the role of the Kremlin in this invasion.
