Summary
The Center for Countering Disinformation said an anti-Ukrainian campaign is continuing in Poland, with messaging designed to inflame tensions between Poles and Ukrainians and weaken backing for Kyiv.
Four recurring narratives were identified: that Ukrainians are committing crimes against Poles en masse, building a large drug-production business, operating a “fifth column” inside Poland, and helping shrink Poland’s borders.
The Center said the claims are being pushed through outlets that regularly circulate messages echoing Russian propaganda, inserting manipulative stories about Ukrainians into Poland’s information space.
It said the campaign’s broader aim is to incite hatred, provoke interethnic conflict and erode Polish support for Ukraine.
What hidden networks are paying operatives to stage fake protests and spark dangerous interethnic conflicts within European borders?
How are old historical traumas being weaponized by foreign actors to secretly manipulate public opinion and tear neighboring countries apart from the inside?
Could the rising hostility against refugees in host nations actually be the result of a coordinated, AI-driven psychological warfare campaign?
