SAI cited "Qatar Media" without naming one that navy officials "may be awarded capital punishment".
DFRAC has performed a fact check & found there is no such news or press release has been published on any account.

SAI said India didn't "acknowledge" it for "a year".
Both claims are wrong.
The detain happened on 30Aug'22, so can't be "one year".
And then Asianet news in Oct'22 & Dec'22, the Indian officials were in touch with Qatari counterpart & consular access was provided.

This entire episode shouldn't be taken as just another twitter trend. Someone sitting abroad, collaborating with local handlers artificially escalated matter upto a level that Indian govt had to face global embarassment. And this won't stop here.

With my limited knowledge here are few steps that can be taken to deal with such Information War.
1. As soon as such trend starts, inform twitter RGO to legally restrict visibility of those main handlers in India.

Now that 🇫🇮 is on the brink of sending an application to join #NATO, 🇷🇺 hybrid-warfare has picked up its pace. One crucial piece of that machine is the big network of "finnish" anti-vax/nato/whatever is required at the time websites and accounts, spewing nonsense to the public.
So how do we know about the 🇷🇺 involvement?
Simple, the do not hide their precence. Examples follow: koronarealistit dot net(com) is a professionally made website spewing covid nonsense, and traces back to 🇷🇺.

Another example: so called "Doctor clinic" Lääkärikeskus Aleksi 15, stationed in Helsinki that operates presumably under the company Clinic Estetic. They claim to offer medical services without covid restrictions of any kind. Website is hosted in #Russia. 1/2

On June 2, #Russia has finally unveiled its new National #Security #Strategy - the strategic document that was expected some six months ago. The document is very interesting and has #information security at its heart. #InformationWarfare 1/8
One thing that may immediately surprise some experts, is the total absence of the word "#cyber", so revered in our Western countries. This further confirms the difference in approaches to the issue of #InformationWarfare and cyber. 2/8
In terms of terminology, the document does not use "#InformationWarfare, but "#InformationConfrontation" (информационное противоборство). Of course no nonsense like "#fakenews" can be found in it, although there are references to #propaganda and #PsyOps. 3/8

1) Defeat Disinfo uses artificial intelligence (AI) and network analysis that maps President Trump’s statements to friendly discussion groups and the individuals who discuss them on social media. #InformationWarfare #PoliticalWarfare #Insurgency #DigitalSoldiers #DigitalArmy
2) In Intelligence parlance, THIS IS A COLLECTION EFFORT—but this one is directed at American citizens and U.S. persons. President Trump is not al-Baghdadi and pro-Trump Americans are not ISIS cells. #InformationWarfare #PoliticalWarfare #Insurgency #DigitalSoldiers #DigitalArmy
2) We read that retired Special Operations General Stanley McChrystal will “deploy” information warfare technology in the domestic U.S. political arena: washingtonpost.com/politics/techn…
3) The organization running McChrystal’s #InformationWarfare effort against the president is a “Democratic-aligned political action committee” called Defeat Disinfo. defeatdisinfo.org
This is the visual representation of #Russia’s classification of modern armed conflicts. The #information conflicts are classified under the “domain” (place of happening) together with those happening in space and airspace, land, sea, and. #InformationWarfare
According to the principle of the use of forces they are: 1) classic, 2) asymmetric, 3) network-centric, and 4) hybrid. Even though #Russia approach to #InformationWarfare can engage it in all of them, but worth especially highlighting #networkcentric and #hybrid.
The armed conflicts in #Russia are also classified with the respect to “resources employed”. #InformationWarfare falls under “the use of #information and #psychological resources”.
🚨JFC Information warfare on Americans by Americans. NSA O'Brien's on the Sunday news shows sowing doubt on report #Russia's helping Trump—again. "If the intelligence exists, I hasn't seen it." Claims it's "commonsense" Russia would NOT want Trump—b/c he's so "tough on Russia."🤯
Gaslighting clown O'Brien not only sounds like an idiot, he sounds like the idiot in Helsinki: "I highly doubt it [intelligence]. Why would Russia want him re-elected? It makes no sense." AND calls #Russia's sweeping 2016 attack "a very small amount of election interference."🤡
Information warfare, courtesy of NSA. O'Brien denies intel Russia's helping Trump, but embellishes intel against Bernie. He said Russia wants Sanders as president—adding Trump rally line "honeymooned in Moscow"—but intel says Russia's disrupting Dem primaries. Putin wants Trump💯
