Today, another reaction to our latest data research, "Roller Coaster," investigating the ecosystem of U.S. opponents of aid to Ukraine appeared on the Fox News website, describing as a “Biden-linked Ukraine group.” Texty.org.ua
This manipulative statement was based solely on the fact that photos and data of co-founder Anatoliy Bondarenko appeared on the TechCamp website, a U.S. government project.

In 2015, he gave lectures at TechCamp Kyiv at the organizers' invitation.Texty.org.ua

On Monday, US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene claimed that she is an "enemy of the state" in Ukraine.

Greene accused Ukrainian President @ZelenskyyUa for putting elected members of Congress “on their state KILL list”.

“Zelenskyy is the real enemy of democracy,” @RepMTG added. ⬇️ Greene’s post included an image that appears to show her name on a list from our recent research “Roller Coaster: From Trumpists to Communists. The forces in the U.S. impeding aid to Ukraine and how they do it” ⬇️

What’s the latest in Russian #disinformation narratives?

We break it down in our week-by-week monitoring 🧵 ⤵️ 1️⃣ Russian propagandists tried to delegitimise the upcoming Global Peace Summit 🇨🇭, arguing that any meaningful resolution is impossible without Russia & that West is imposing its will on Russia while falsely portraying Moscow as a proponent of peace.

Satellite images reveal that Russia is building new railway tracks in occupied Ukraine to improve their military logistics 🛰️⤵️

As Western allies stall on arming Ukraine to target the Crimean Bridge, Russians seize the opportunity and construct an alternative connection route.

texty.org.ua/articles/11207… Recently, Petro Andriushchenko, an advisor to the mayor of Mariupol, published a map disclosing the scheme of railway tracks planned by the Russian authorities in the occupied territories of Ukraine.

Battle for the history: how Russia is waging information war through children's books in foreign languages.

A thread 🧵⤵️ A few centuries ago the world only knew of Muscovy. Now, with the help of powerful & extensively-funded Russian propaganda, the situation has drastically changed & the history of Rus’ has become a parody.

Russia has created a colossal fake and made the whole world believe it!

How does the network of Russian propaganda bots work through Facebook around the world? We’ve had a closer look and learnt that their recipe for success is quite simple.

Hop on, buckle up, our journey begins in Cambodia ⬇ 🧵

1/12 Cambodia is the place where administrators who manage one of Russia's propaganda pages are registered. It didn’t take us too long to find the group either – its name appeared in Facebook recommendations after we viewed several other pages promoting Russian disinformation.

As the wait for for the long-anticipated Ukraine’s counteroffensive continues, Russian propaganda machine has started preparing the public for various scenarios.

Last week's stories were dominated by a single message: the Ukrainian operation is a stillborn. The #disinformation… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… 📰 Last week, Russian propaganda media reported successful strikes on Western weapon systems in Ukraine, claiming the domination of Russian weapons:

“The Patriot systems are highly vulnerable. A working radar of a Patriot system gives out its local from miles away making it… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

The “capture of Soledar” was dominating headlines in Russian media last week. To add further significance, Russian propagandists generated multiple fakes about battle specifics.

Check out our weekly media #disinformation update for Russia's latest #propaganda narratives⬇️

1/8 ▶️News about fighting in #Soledar & #Bakhmut appeared alongside stories on peace talks, another hot topic of Russian propaganda:

📰“Russia is ready for peace talks, but should they fail, we will not hesitate using military force to reach the objectives of special operation”

Oleksandr Makarevych, 22, from Chernihiv has joined Ukraine’s Armed Forces in September 2021.

He went missing on 26 June this year near Bakhmut. Until 10 October, his family did not know anything about what happened to him.

Oleksandr recalls his 108 days in captivity ⬇️ 1/10 “The exchange took place in Bakhmut, Donetsk, on a minefield.”

“We walked 1.5 kilometers (~a mile) on a straight road. There were 32 of us, one was wounded. The 33rd, who died in combat, was carried in our hands.”

After the liberation of Kherson, Russia can only retreat to Crimea. But there is one nuance ⬇️

texty.org.ua/articles/10825… When in July 2022 Ukrainian forces targeted the Antonivskyi bridge for the first time it became clear there's only one way out for the Russian troops on the right bank: retreat.

The process of retreat lasted about a month in October. Its final stage took place on 8-11 November👇

Hyped-up scandals around the alleged misuse of West-supplied weapons in Ukraine have recently circled the news both in Russia & Western information space.

Such accusations are harmful & groundless. Western weapons are under reliable control in Ukraine.

Here are 8 reasons why ⬇️ 1⃣
Verified information about the use of weapons and military equipment provided to Ukraine by Western allies is available to the responsible government structures of Ukraine and partner states.

Activists, volunteers, human rights defenders and media have launched a campaign demanding the resignation of Amnesty International's senior leadership.

How to get involved? ⬇️

How does the controversial @CBSNews piece on Ukraine’s foreign weapons supplies promote Russian disinformation?

A closer look ⬇️

1/19 Although @CBS deleted & rewrote its piece on foreign aid to Ukraine (supporting the release of a new ‘Arming Ukraine’ documentary), their story might have been the first video example of pro-Russian propaganda produced by a reputable media outlet.

How does Russia fabricate evidence about alleged Ukraine crimes? A story from the darknet ⬇️

1/15 Almost from the very beginning of the invasion Russian disinformers spread fakes about Ukraine trading West-supplied weapons.

But since these stories didn't resonate well with Western audiences, Russia has recently backed up their disinformation spews with "real evidence".

In April, TEXTY discovered traces of Russian military radars in the east of Ukraine. Since then their number has increased.

Today we publish an updated map showing some of the identified radar systems which are likely being deployed in warfare. #ddj 1/15

texty.org.ua/articles/10736… But first thing first, why radars?

Radars are the "ears" and "eyes" of the military.

They can perform a variety of tasks: from detecting enemy objects to identifying their type, parameters, directions of movement, etc.

The Russian economy is imploding, says @YaleSOM study headed by @JeffSonnenfeld.

The exodus of 1,000+ global companies and international sanctions are catastrophically crippling Russia′s economy, despite Moscow downplaying the effect.

1/8 Using international trade & shipping data researchers at Yale measured Russian economic activity 5 months into invasion.

It became clear that Russia’s position as a commodities exporter (revenue from which makes 1/2 of Russia’s total gov't budget) has worsened irrevocably.

The road to freedom: how seven people were breaking out of #Russia-occupied #Berdyansk for three days in an old ‘Lada Devyatka’ car.

Aliona Semko recounts the story 🧵

1/ "Where are you going? At least they don't shoot in here," I kept hearing from people around.

Like me, they felt uncomfortable under #RussianOccupation but fear of the unknown paralysed their desire to live free. Fear & uncertainty cost them freedom.
