Details

The FBI said it was aware of bomb threats against polling stations in several states, “many of which appear to have originated from Russian email domains.” However, none of the threats have been recognized as credible so far.

The publication notes that US intelligence officials are checking an email account that used a Russian Internet domain as a potential source of implausible bomb threats on election day in Georgia.

Russian influencers have disseminated a fake video with false accusations of election fraud in Arizona. The video is linked to the “troll factory” Pryzhyn and contains a fake interview with an alleged former assistant secretary of state.
