'Information Warfare' Has Already Begun In The Ukraine Crisis

Yahoo News: With Russian troops poised on the border with Ukraine, 'information warfare' has already begun 

The dire warnings from America about a possible Russian invasion of Ukraine keep coming. 

On Saturday, U.S. intelligence reports stated that Russia was capable of overtaking capital Kyiv within 72 hours and inflicting 50,000 civilian deaths. 

On Sunday, U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said that the 130,000 Russian troops massed on the Ukrainian border could attack “any day.” On Monday, President Biden told those 30,000 Americans living in Ukraine “it would be wise to leave the country.” 

The Russian version of the situation, however, is markedly different. Dmitry Polyanskiy, Russia’s deputy ambassador to the United Nations, called the U.S. assessments “madness and scaremongering,” dismissing them as “propaganda.” 

Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for Russia’s foreign ministry, on Monday asserted that the U.S. and U.K. are targeting Russia “to divert public attention from domestic political crises.”
