“The account sets we’re publishing to the archive today include three distinct operations that we have attributed to the People's Republic of China (PRC), Russia, and Turkey respectively. Every account and piece of content associated with these operations has been permanently removed from the service,” the statement said.

The statement said that the Chinese network of 23,750 accounts were tweeting predominantly in Chinese languages and spreading geopolitical narratives favorable to the Communist Party of China (CCP), while continuing to push deceptive narratives about the political dynamics in Hong Kong.

The statement noted that the Russian network of 1,152 accounts was linked to state-backed media website 'Current Policy', a media website engaging in state-backed political propaganda within Russia.

“A network of accounts related to this media operation was suspended for violations of our platform manipulation policy, specifically cross-posting and amplifying content in an inauthentic, coordinated manner for political ends. Activities included promoting the United Russia party and attacking political dissidents. We’re disclosing all 1,152 accounts and associated media to our public archive today,” it said.

According to the statement, the Turkish group of 7,340 accounts was found to be amplifying support for the AK Party and Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

“Based on our analysis of the network’s technical indicators and account behaviors, the collection of fake and compromised accounts was being used to amplify political narratives favorable to the AK Parti, and demonstrated strong support for President Erdogan. We’re disclosing 7,340 accounts to the archive today, “ the statement said. (ILKHA)
