SBU blocks blogger who spread separatism and COVID-19 fakes

The SBU cyber specialists blocked a blogger, who posted separatist publications, appeals to change borders of our country and fakes on coronavirus on her private account.

The SBU established that the resident of Kyiv attempted to destabilize socio-political situation in Ukraine performing the task of Russian curators. So, she posted false information about COVID-19 pandemic and distorted facts about the situation in Ukraine before the Victory day over Nazism.

She used information from Russian propaganda publications and shared her own posts to an audience of tens of thousands users.

During the searches at the place of her residence, investigators found mobile devices and computers with evidence of the illicit activity.

The committed actions are investigated within the criminal proceeding under Part 1 Article 110 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

The suspect is served a notice of suspicion of the crime. The pre-trial investigation is ongoing.
