Russia drops fake money leaflets from drones in Ukrainian border areas PHOTO

Russia has dropped fake money leaflets from drones in Ukraine’s border areas, increasing the use of propaganda materials.

The Centre for Countering Disinformation said the materials resemble Ukrainian hryvnia banknotes and include QR codes along with messages calling for “joint celebration of Victory Day,” Caliber.Az reports.

Ahead of what it described as a “symbolic date for the Kremlin” on May 9, the agency made it clear that drones were used to drop leaflets designed to look like currency notes.

The leaflets reportedly contain QR codes and messaging aimed at discrediting Ukraine’s political and military leadership, while also invoking World War II narratives and promoting calls for shared Victory Day commemorations.
