Fake news about German military intervention is spreading in Poland

According to PAP, the Polish research institute NASK reported 9,649 false or misleading online contents by November 6, with 9,471 linked to bot networks. A significant number of these posts were identified on a single day. The disinformation campaigns focused on political tensions surrounding the Constitutional Tribunal. Allegations of German intervention circulated, fueled by right-wing politicians sharing misleading images of Bundeswehr soldiers in Warsaw. The German ambassador clarified that the soldiers were attending an anniversary event. The Polish police denied claims about their equipment and the use of loudspeakers as weapons. Speculations about a state of emergency were also dismissed. The Polish defense ministry refuted claims regarding the refusal of the president's plane landing at Chopin Airport, attributing such misinformation to Russian and Belarusian propaganda.
