According to hvylya.net: The Center for Counteracting Disinformation suggests that in the coming two weeks, Russian propaganda will intensify the use of the topic of protests in Ukraine in its information campaigns.

According to the Center's information, enemy resources are expected to spread false claims that the Ukrainian people allegedly demand 'capitulation,' 'overthrow of power,' and 'end the war at all costs.' Moreover, an increase in enemy information operations targeting residents of frontline regions of Ukraine is predicted. In particular, false reports about the alleged evacuation of military administration employees, provocative 'leaks' posing as statements from Ukrainian military or local authorities, will be spread to scare people and create the impression of a collapse in the defense of the Ukrainian armed forces.

'It is also expected that the Russians will continue information manipulation – from attempts to discredit Ukraine in the context of negotiations in Istanbul to promoting the topic of prisoner exchanges and undermining trust in the Ukrainian air defense forces,' the Center noted.

It is forecasted that propaganda from Russia will increase its influence by using topics such as protests in Ukraine and false messages to intimidate residents of frontline regions.
