Kremlin-linked botnet disseminates false information on Havana Syndrome, confirming disinformation campaign by Russian authorities

Retweeted by Nuno Felix, Olga NYC (@OlgaNYC1211) has called out a Kremlin-linked botnet spreading false information about the existence of Havana Syndrome. In her tweet, she thanks Russia for essentially confirming that these disinformation campaigns are being orchestrated by the Kremlin. This revelation comes from theins.ru, a pro-Kremlin news outlet that published an article denying the validity of Havana Syndrome, which refers to a series of mysterious health incidents affecting US diplomats and spies in Cuba and other countries. The incidents have been linked to possible sonic attacks, but the exact cause remains unknown. The retweet by Nuno Felix highlights the ongoing efforts by various actors, including state-backed groups like the one behind this botnet, to spread misinformation and sow doubt about the reality of these incidents.
