Russia will ban US State Department websites and Internet mass mailing services that spread false information about Russia's military troops and the special military operation in Ukraine, Russian news agency Tass reported.
"Resources of the US State Department and Internet services for mass mailings of emails to Russian citizens containing fakes that discredit Russian military servicemen and the special military operation in Ukraine will be blocked," chairman of the State Duma’s commission for investigation of foreign interference in Russia’s internal affairs, Vasily Piskaryov, said on Thursday.
According to the Piskaryov, large-scale resources were used to organize the anti-Russian campaign, and “everything is being done to sow panic and distrust in society" toward the Russian armed forces and the country's leadership, as well as to discredit the special military operation.
Meanwhile, in a separate report, the UK defense ministry said that Russia’s Eastern Group of Forces (EGF) have likely increased their efforts to advance to the south of Izium.
