Pro-Russian publics are spreading false information that Polish border guards allegedly force Ukrainian citizens to undress to their underwear and thoroughly check tattoos on their bodies during inspections.
In addition, Russians say that Poles allegedly check Ukrainian mobile phones and their content for "prohibitions." As "evidence," Russians spread allegedly official information stands.
As the Lviv Border Detachment informed the Center, these messages are another example of Russian information attacks aimed at undermining Ukrainian-Polish relations.
The Center for Countering Disinformation indicated that the images used by Russians in their Telegram channels were edited and various methods of graphic influence were applied to them.
The CCD emphasizes: Russian propaganda is once again trying to sow enmity between Ukrainians and Poles. The main goal is to destroy the trust and solidarity that have significantly strengthened since the beginning of the full-scale war.
