Russian disinformers continue to dedicate one in every three news items to the war and its consequences for Russia. So we continue to analyze news on Russian websites and to look at what the enemy is telling its own population about the attack on Ukraine.

We have analyzed news on Russian websites for February 24 to 27 and reviewed what the enemy was telling its population about the attack on Ukraine. To do this, we have rearranged our model of disinformation monitoring and analyzed almost 11,000 news items from Russian state media and manipulative websites that purposefully spread Russian disinformation.
