Abstract

The Russian–Ukrainian war, which broke out on February 24, 2022, resulted in several paradigm shifts in cyber warfare. One aspect of these changes is psychological operations. Russia and Ukraine have conducted extensive psychological operation campaigns to fulfil their war objectives, which have since been intense along modified intentions. This series of studies examines the impact of war-related fake news through various empirical research. In the first part of the paper, the authors examine the emergence of psychological operations and related terms in the international academic literature using network analysis methodology. In the second part of the paper, the authors use sentiment and network analysis to investigate the spread of different fake news. In the third study, the authors measure the attitudes toward the perception of the Hungarian Defence Forces from the perspective of the war in the neighbouring country.
