The Ministry of National Defense reports new disinformation actions in the online environment, especially on the TikTok platform.

According to the InfoRadar portal, a Ministry of National Defence tool to combat fake news, this time Romania's borders and port infrastructure are targeted.

The first of the two identified posts falsely claims that Romania's borders will be closed and secured with military troops.

The second one also presents, without any connection to reality, military technology not in the Romanian Army's possession as being concentrated in the Port of Constanta, which, the authors of the disinformation claim, is proof of war preparations.

The Ministry states that all this information is false.
