On February 8, ‘Bukvy’ Facebook page was attacked by bots under the news about the dismissal of General Valerii Zaluzhnyi and appointment of Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi.

In particular, more than 4,000 users reacted to ‘Bukvy’ post with the reaction of the former president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko to the dismissal of Zaluzhnyi.

Most of the likes with a laughing emoticon – more than 1.9 thousand – were left by foreign users of the social network, with practically empty profiles.

The same situation was with another post, about the appointment of Oleksandr Syrskyi to the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. There are more than 1.3 thousand likes, most of which are positive, and they were left by the same empty profiles of foreigners.
