The campaign impersonated media outlets and activists but had 'little or no engagement', Meta says.
The accounts targeting Iran had criticised Iranian authorities and their policies and posted about issues such as women's rights, researchers said.
Some of those supporting the US had posed as independent media outlets and some had tried to pass off content from legitimate outlets, such as BBC News Russian, as their own. The operation ran across many internet services, including Twitter, YouTube, Telegram, VKontakte and Odnoklassniki, according to Meta."Although the people behind this operation attempted to conceal their identities and coordination, our investigation found links to individuals associated with the US military," its report says.
