He noted that 97 pages and groups on Facebook were deleted, which were involved in coordinated unnatural behavior within the network originating from Russia and focused on Ukraine.
The people behind these pages and groups often made posts about the conflict in the east of Ukraine wrote about political news in the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Europe, as well as about the civil war in Syria.
In addition, a similar Russian network was removed from 21 pages on this social network and Instagram, which focused on Austria, the Baltic countries, Germany, Spain and the UK.
