People pass by the local election campaign board of the Servant of the People party candidate for the mayor of Kyiv, Iryna Vereshchuk, on Oct. 21, 2020 in downtown Kyiv.
Social network Facebook removed in April up to 1,000 fake accounts and public pages that spread propaganda and offensive content against rival politicians. Some of these accounts were run by Ukraine’s top officials.
People behind these accounts could be linked to President Volodymyr Zelensky’s Servant of the People party, ex-Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman, head of the Dovira party Oleg Kulinich and lawmaker Andriy Derkach who was sanctioned by the U.S. in September over the 2020 presidential election interference, Facebook reported.
