French officials and cybersecurity experts warn of intensifying Russian disinformation campaigns targeting France, particularly focusing on the legislative elections and the upcoming Paris Olympics. The campaigns have included spreading anti-French disinformation online, such as fake news about military recruitment drives in Ukraine and fake news sites posing as major French media. The goal is to undermine France and sow social discord, erode faith in the media and democratic governments, and diminish Western support for Ukraine.
