Microsoft's statement revealed that Russian surrogates created fabricated videos to discredit Vice President Harris, including one claiming her involvement in a fictitious hit-and-run accident.
Digital experts warn that Russian tactics will involve using cyber proxies and hacktivist groups to push divisive narratives through media platforms, exploiting staged content and AI tools.
The Department of National Intelligence found that Russia is the leading country producing AI-generated disinformation targeting the upcoming election, contributing to a broader strategy of manipulation.
Officials confirmed that a fake news outlet, KBSF-TV, published a story about Harris's supposed hit-and-run involvement, but there was no evidence to support these claims.
