Against the backdrop of the successful operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region, Russian propaganda is intensifying its information campaign against the Ukrainian leadership. In particular, Russia is spreading fakes about the split between the military and politicians. This was stated by the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council.
Details
Analysts say that Russian propaganda resources have intensified disinformation about alleged conflicts between President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyy.
Various conspiracy narratives are being spread, alleging that Syrsky was "secretly preparing" an operation in Kursk, which is why he is now being "leaked" by the political leadership.

In addition, rf spreads fakes about the alleged political ambitions and "undercover plans" of the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, Kirill Budanov. The propagandists use the President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, to voice some of their theses.
narratives are spreading that Ukraine has thwarted the possibility of negotiations with the operation in Kursk region, and now the West is allegedly "looking for a replacement for Zelensky.
All of these fakes are part of the enemy's disinformation campaign. However, conspiracy theories have nothing to do with reality. Do not fall for the enemy's manipulations.
