France cites Russian network in election info campaign
France has uncovered a Russian disinformation campaign targeting presidential candidate Gabriel Attal. Authorities detected external interference from Russia, directly linked to the Russian government, which aimed to subtly spread fake content on social media platforms. The campaign was carried out through posts impersonating French media outlets, and its connection to supporting Ukraine has increased since the start of the Russian invasion. This operation has been linked to the pro-Russia "Matryoshka" network, which also targeted other French candidates, with the goal of influencing the upcoming presidential elections next year.
