The Center for Countering Disinformation reported the information."As part of this information campaign, Russian channels are spreading a Telegram bot where users are allegedly able to submit the coordinates of city or territorial recruitment and social support centers," the statement says."This is happening amid a series of strikes on recruitment centers in various regions of Ukraine, indicating a coordinated attempt by Russia to destabilize the mobilization process and sow panic among the population," the Center added.They emphasized that these Telegram bots also help the enemy collect personal information about people for the purpose of further pressure and blackmail.Ukrainians are urged not to interact with such hostile programs and to report them to the relevant authorities.On July 6, the Russian forces carried out a drone strike on a recruitment center building in Kremenchuk, Poltava region.On July 7, Russia attacked recruitment center buildings in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia with drones.
