Propaganda and disinformation are key tools of domestic and foreign policy of the Russian Federation authorities. The main role in spreading Russian lies is played by people calling themselves ‘journalists’ and ‘publicists’, who in reality are part of the Kremlin managed system of lies. It is they who shape Russian public opinion, thereby ensuring that the socio-political stability of the regime is maintained.

Eight persons involved in corrupt practices in the organisation of tenders for PGNiG S.A. Branch in Zielona Góra have been detained by the CBA. This is a new investigation conducted by the CBA and the first operation in this case.

The recent military actions by Russia aim not only to defeat Ukraine's troops, but also to destroy the country's society and economic foundations. The Russian war in Ukraine has clearly become a war of exhaustion.

On 1 June 2022 the Internal Security Agency officers detained in Gdynia Konrad W., a man who acted in concert with Joanna S. and her son Mikael S. – organizers of a fictitious trading in works of arts on a large scale.

Every message of the Kremlin that reaches the Western public opinion should be alarming as it may affect the way the Russian aggression in perceived. Media in Italy constitute a telling example of how easily and deeply the Russian propaganda may infect the Western infosphere.

The current military situation in Ukraine is very difficult for the Ukrainian military, but the defenders are far from losing control of events on the battlefield. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are responding to the actions of the aggressor, currently focusing on Donbass. The Ukrainians are managing to inflict very heavy losses on the invaders in this region.

Russian disinformation activities against Poland focuses on arousing hostility between Poles and Ukrainians. Some of the messages are attempts to convince Poles that by accepting refugees from Ukraine they are exposing themselves to economic crisis, security risks and social problems.

In two separate cases, the preliminary proceedings carried out by Poland’s civilian counter-intelligence agency - the ABW - resulted in handing up indictments against three men on charges of spying or complicity in spying for Russia or Belarus.

As we can see clearly, the war against Ukraine continues. More media and intelligence information shows that Russia is trying to continue the invasion, but neither Russian aggressor, nor Ukraine defense is able to make a breakthrough on a battlefield.

Two persons involved in corrupt practices have been detained by the CBA. At least PLN 160 thousand of financial advantages in return for a favourable outcome of tenders.
