Russia's psychological operation targets Ukrainians with false "massive" strike warning

As reported by Ukraine's intelligence, messages about a "particularly massive missile and bomb attack" on November 20 are being shared on social media and messaging apps, falsely attributed to Ukraine's Defence Intelligence (DIU). 

The intelligence agency warns that these messages are part of a Russian psychological attack, containing typical grammar mistakes often seen in their disinformation campaigns. 

The DIU urges people to stay alert and strong in the face of these tactics.

• The embassies of the United States, Spain, Italy, and Greece received specific warnings about a potential major Russian air attack on Ukraine on Wednesday, November 20. The Center for Countering Disinformation reports that Russia has been stockpiling missiles in preparation for a series of attacks on Ukraine over several months.
