Die Spionageabwehr warnt: Speziell Russland habe ein Interesse daran, die Deutschen vor der Bundestagswahl zu verunsichern, Gerüchte zu streuen, konkrete Abläufe zu behindern. Zu erwarten sind gezielte Falschinformationen im Netz, wenn nicht Schlimmeres.
The Verfassungsschutz NRW has issued a warning about potential disruptions on election day, attributing these to foreign actors, particularly Russia, aiming to undermine trust in the election process. These actors may use social media to spread disinformation, including fake threats against polling stations, to cause panic. The Verfassungsschutz has alerted political parties and municipalities to these risks and emphasized that strong countermeasures are in place.
