The only thing that comes to mind is that it is a mighty assault of Russian trolls caused by this last tweet about the Russian radio-electronics-equipped military vehicles in the Donbas (screenshot attached).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When I started to write this post about blocking of my Twitter account, Facebook automatically showed me an absurd message that my post was \u201cfake\u201d (screenshot attached).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It does look like the Russians have already mastered the corona virus-induced panic as a means of blocking those social networks users who present REAL and IMPORTANT proofs of the Russian aggression&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2>The Russian Trolls Have Adapted to New Mechanisms of Blocking<\/h2>\n<p>Also, we are of the opinion that the Russian troll factories have adapted to using the mechanisms of account blocking designed during the international campaign against fake news about COVID19. They use these mechanisms for a massive blocking of every person who unveils the truth about the Russian military aggression.<\/p>\n<p>It is also not excluded that such an unprecedented activity of the Russian trolls is explained by the desire of the leadership of the Russian Federation to obscure any new evidence of their country\u2019s aggression in the Donbas. This evidence stands on the way of Kremlin\u2019s plans to demand the lifting of international sanctions in the midst of an international crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Help People Share the Intelligence Data from Volunteers During Blockade<\/h2>\n<p>We urge our readers to take into consideration that the Russian Federation is trying, with a growing aggressiveness, to isolate our volunteers\u2019 community from sharing the open-source intelligence data through social networks.

A powerful attack on my accounts has been launched.<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>For the first time in 6 years of war, Twitter blocked my account, for no apparent reason and with no explanation. The only thing that comes to mind is that it is a mighty assault of Russian trolls caused by this last tweet about the Russian radio-electronics-equipped military vehicles in the Donbas (screenshot attached).<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>When I started to write this post about blocking of my Twitter account, Facebook automatically showed me an absurd message that my post was \u201cfake\u201d (screenshot attached).<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>It does look like the Russians have already mastered the corona virus-induced panic as a means of blocking those social networks users who present REAL and IMPORTANT proofs of the Russian aggression\"<\/em>.\r\n<h2>The Russian Trolls Have Adapted to New Mechanisms of Blocking<\/h2>\r\nAlso, we are of the opinion that the Russian troll factories have adapted to using the mechanisms of account blocking designed during the international campaign against fake news about COVID19. They use these mechanisms for a massive blocking of every person who unveils the truth about the Russian military aggression.\r\n\r\nIt is also not excluded that such an unprecedented activity of the Russian trolls is explained by the desire of the leadership of the Russian Federation to obscure any new evidence of their country\u2019s aggression in the Donbas. This evidence stands on the way of Kremlin\u2019s plans to demand the lifting of international sanctions in the midst of an international crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic.\r\n<h2>How to Help People Share the Intelligence Data from Volunteers During Blockade<\/h2>\r\nWe urge our readers to take into consideration that the Russian Federation is trying, with a growing aggressiveness, to isolate our volunteers\u2019 community from sharing the open-source intelligence data through social networks. This is why we ask you to add our site to your bookmarks, to check regularly our updates, and to help share our publications by all means available to you: in blogs, through Internet pages and groups, through publications in media etc.\r\n\r\nUsually, new materials from us at first are published in Ukrainian in the <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/ua\/category\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u041d\u041e\u0412\u0418\u041d\u0418<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/category\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">News<\/a>) section.
