Syria experienced its worst wave of violence and disinformation since the fall of President Bashar Assad in early December. Disinformation was closely linked to real-life coordination on the ground, with malicious actors urging minorities to flee and encouraging attacks on government posts. The surge in disinformation and hate speech online is fueling violence and deepening divisions, making it difficult for communities to come together. External actors, including Iran, Russia, Israel, and right-wing commentators in the US, are also using disinformation to pursue their own agendas against the new Syrian government.
