A video claiming election fraud in Arizona has been identified by the US intelligence community as a product of Russian influence actors, officials said. The misleading video, which falsely depicts an interview alleging that fake overseas ballots were created and voter rolls altered to benefit Vice President Kamala Harris, was amplified by a group connected to an infamous "troll factory" that targeted the 2016 US presidential election.
In a joint statement released hours before Election Day, the FBI, Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency detailed how the video was "manufactured and amplified."
