| Description: | After Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Belarus in June of aiding Russia’s drone attacks, posts shared a fabricated image purportedly showing Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko apprehended by Ukrainian forces. There are no official reports that Lukashenko has been detained and detection tools flagged the image as made with Google’s AI tools. |
