'Operation Matryoshka': Russian propaganda machine exploits 2015 Paris attacks

A series of French newsrooms – including France 24 – have been targeted and impersonated by a Russian disinformation campaign.

The propaganda machine, named “Operation Matryoshka”, is one we have seen and been targeted by before, as Vedika Bahl explains in Truth or Fake.
