Facebook and Twitter announced they have remove accounts linked to Russia and Iran campaigns over inauthentic and manipulative behaviour. Co-founder of Facebook; Mark Zukerberg stated that more than 650 pages and groups were found to have been identified as misleading. Meanwhile Twitter said it suspended 284 accounts with apparent links to Iran.
On Tuesday, Facebook said it had discovered multiple accounts that displayed inauthentic behaviour linked to Iran and Russia campaigns following investigations that spanned 'many months'. "We banned this kind of behaviour because we want people to be able to trust the connections they make," Facebook said.
Although the investigation is still in progress, the social media network added; the campaign appeared to be targeting people across multiple internet services in the Middle East, Latin America, the United States and the United Kingdom.
