A striking projection appeared overnight near the Armenian community church on Potsdamer Straße in Berlin, displaying a message in Armenian:
“1988. Փաշինյանը դավաճանել է հայերի հիշողությունը!”
Translated, it reads: “1988. Pashinyan has betrayed the memory of Armenians!” Accompanying the message was an image of the forget-me-not flower, a symbol of remembrance for the Armenian Genocide.
The date referenced, February 20, 1988, marks the beginning of the Karabakh (Artsakh) Movement, when Armenians in Artsakh initiated their struggle for self-determination.

Official government accounts have also spread fake fact checks. An official Twitter account for the Russia diplomatic mission in Geneva shared a fake debunking video claiming without evidence that "Western and Ukrainian media are creating thousands of fake news on Russia every day." The video, which has amassed almost 30,000 views, offered a "how-to" spot misinformation. For example, WhatsApp restricted the number of times a user could forward something, and developed automated systems that detect and flag objectionable content. Perpetrators of these scams will create a public group on Telegram to promote these investment packages that are usually accompanied by fake testimonies and sometimes advertised as being Shariah-compliant. Interested investors will be asked to directly message the representatives to begin investing in the various investment packages offered. "He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. It is unclear who runs the account, although Russia's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account promoted the Telegram channel on Saturday and claimed it was operated by "a group of experts & journalists."
