As a result of special operations, the organizers of hostile cells were exposed. They were two local IT specialists who sold fake accounts to Russia. Later, Russian special services reportedly used them to conduct information sabotage in favor of the Kremlin.

In particular, the racists used accounts "registered" in Ukraine to spread disinformation about the socio-political situation in the country, allegedly on behalf of Ukrainian citizens.

Russian special services also used fake accounts to spread discrediting messages about the activities of the Defense Forces and the situation at the front.
