Post Reply New Topic

Two prominent Russian hoaxers have published footage from a call they made to the UK defence secretary.

In a recording posted online, Ben Wallace can be heard speaking to a man in a video call, made while Mr Wallace was visiting Poland on Friday.

Mr Wallace revealed the hoax last week, saying he had been targeted by an "imposter" posing as the Ukrainian PM.

The UK government has blamed Russia for targeting British ministers with fake calls about the conflict in Ukraine.

Home Secretary Priti Patel revealed she had received a hoax call last week, whilst No 10 said Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries has also been targeted.
