Not that hard to kill the distribution network for Storm-1516 on X, the only required thing is to ban anyone posting their content for money, considering that the going rate is around several thousands dollars for a dozen publications for large accounts
A ce jour, j'ai pu identifier en sources ouvertes 27 comptes d'influenceurs Maga affiliés à Storm-1516 qui ont primo-diffusé du contenu ciblant la France depuis juin 2026, et 1/3 de ces comptes ont été suspendus hier par X. Il ne faut pas perdre de vue que ce que l'on appelle en France "Magasphère" est bien souvent, et de longue date, une "Poutinosphère".

In our recent report we explained some of the inner workings of the Storm-1516 collaborator network
Unlike many of the state-sponsored influence operations, Storm-1516 operators rely primarily on an international network of real collaborators to publish and promote their narratives, in opposition to a more traditional approach of employing own network of bot accounts

The latest Storm-1516 disinformation campaign is targeting Germany. The campaign promotes a false narrative that the German government has allegedly introduced an "eco law" to introduce a limit to the number of toilet flushes and shower time through digital meters

Yesterday a video appeared on X purporting to be from @WABI_TV5. It suggested that @TroyJackson207 was violently threatening his campaign staff. Once again we believe this to be a Russian Storm-1516 fake. A few details . . . 1/5

A fake copy of our website, made by a Russian operation, blamed Ukraine for a Russian strike on Kramatorsk. The copycat site added a hyphen to our name and copied our real reports. Among them, it planted a fake: "Ukrainian OSINT channels" had found a Ukrainian drone behind the killing of civilians in Kramatorsk. In reality, on 8 October a Russian aerial bomb hit two buses there, killing 33. Gnida Project and NewsGuard tie the fake to Storm-1516, a Russian operation that clones trusted news sites. We took the fake down. Here is how other newsrooms can do the same. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/10/…

The campaign video continues to follow an emerging pattern of mimicking the local TV station reports by using the branding of the American TV station WABI 5, based in Maine

Storm-1516 distribution network also continues to advertise the Russian "Geran" drones. In the latest instance, the network promotes a fragment of the stream with the Russian propagandists Chay Bowes and Max Blumenthal

Privet Politology/SVR - You've been pwned...again. INPACT/AEOW has received hundreds of very recent documents dated of 2025-2026 about the SVR-controlled Politology network. Despite drastic security measures, a new hack from unknown hacking group reveals how Politology has re-organised following previous investigations and is now not only targeting Africa and Latin America but also Europe, International Organisation, the Middle East and India. This is episode 1 of season 2 for Politology Files alleyesonwagner.org/2026/10/…

Another lie has circulated about Dems and sexual assault, again apparently from the Russian Storm-1516 network. This time the attack is targeting Sherrod Brown, running for Senate in Ohio. Let me explain how this one worked . . . 1/7
