This was reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
The GUR noted that the weaponization of information is part of Russian military doctrine. Today, the Kremlin is waging war not only with missiles, tanks and guns, its information war has no clearly defined front line and is spreading around the world.
“Investing significant resources in it, the Russian authorities are trying to destabilize Ukraine and the world, influence political processes and shape public opinion in various regions of the planet in their own aggressive interests. Only in the first year of the war, Russia Today in Arabic increased its reach by 10 million. users. In the budget for 2025, Russia has allocated $1.42 billion to finance propaganda. Another half a billion dollars a year is spent by Russia on the creation of propaganda by structures not related to the state,” – emphasized the GUR.
As the intelligence added, Russian propaganda supports violence, glorifies the Russian armed forces, justifies aggression and war crimes, uses dehumanization and hatred of Ukraine as fuel for war, and challenges Ukraine’s ability to continue the struggle.
“She has faces that the whole world should know – to know in order to block, impose sanctions, prohibit entry, close bank accounts, stop any cooperation,” the GUR emphasized
