Poland\u2019s Ministry of the Interior has debunked another fake claim about an alleged \u201ccrime committed by a Ukrainian.\u201d<\/p>\n
Posts claiming that a high-profile knife attack on a Polish teenager was allegedly carried out by a \u201c16-year-old Ukrainian\u201d were widely circulated in the Polish information space.<\/p>\n
The country\u2019s Ministry of the Interior officially denied the claim, stating that \u201cthe perpetrator of the attack on a 15-year-old boy in Kamienna G\u00f3ra was a Pole, not a Ukrainian. The victim is also a Polish citizen.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSpreading such messages is nothing other than russian disinformation aimed at turning Poles and Ukrainians against each other and fueling fear and hatred,\u201d said Karolina Galecka, spokesperson for Poland\u2019s Ministry of the Interior.<\/p>\n
This fake is part of a broader disinformation campaign aimed at discrediting Ukrainians in the Polish information space, which the Center has previously reported on. Through a network of bots and anonymous social media accounts, russia is massively spreading fake news and disinformation in Polish in an attempt to provoke ethnic conflicts and domestic destabilization in Poland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
