The Internet Research Agency, a Russian troll farm, used Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Cameo in a coordinated effort to get the suspected spy Maxim Shugaley released from a Libyan prison.
Charlie Sheen, Dolph Lundgren, and other actors on Cameo recorded supportive messages, which were shared on the pro-Shugaley Facebook pages in Libya.
Arrested in Tripoli in May 2019, Maxim Shugaley was charged in June 2020 with actions that harmed the State s security, according to a statement from the Libyan government given to the Anadolu Agency news service.
Russian advocates for Shugaley s release created a misinformation campaign, shooting a documentary about him for Russia Today, then distributing it via Facebook and Instagram in Libya, according to Facebook and the Internet Observatory.
