List of disinformation attacks by country

Disinformation attacks are media campaigns that deliberately disseminate incorrect information through public media channels and the Internet. In many cases the goal of the disinformation attack is to confuse, paralyze, and polarize an audience.[1][2][3][4] This list is intended for attacks on a national-scale, not for example a local political campaign making claims about a single politician.
