Russia plans to continue terrorizing Ukrainian cities with swarm drone attacks and simultaneously launch two information campaigns.
This was stated by the head of the Center for Counteracting Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council, Andriy Kovalenko.
Russia's disinformation strategy
According to Kovalenko, the narrative will be spread to an international audience that it is Russia that is open to negotiations and is forced to fight because Ukraine allegedly wants it.

At the same time, the domestic Ukrainian audience will be segmented by disseminating theses that Ukraine is allegedly incapable of defending itself, and that Russia is capable of destroying everything, demanding capitulation from society.
“This pressure will need to be withstood, military solutions against enemy swarm attacks are being prepared. Information counteraction is also in the works. But you need to know the enemy's tactics to understand the goals,” the head of the CPD noted.
Kovalenko emphasized that Russia wants to continue the war, and the Russian leadership thinks that it can break Ukrainian society and achieve the capitulation of the rear.
“They won’t succeed,” Kovalenko stated categorically.
Earlier, the Center for Political Affairs reported that Russian propagandists began distributing an image of a fake document sent from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense online.
The letter states that the families of the deceased soldiers will allegedly not receive compensation because it is impossible to establish the circumstances of the death.
However, the CPD noted that the information was fake and the document itself was a forgery.
