What is Belarusian Interactive Catalogue of Fakes

The Belarusian Interactive Catalogue of Fakes is an online tool designed to explore false information and disinformation campaigns targeting Belarus. The Catalogue of Fakes was developed by the Belarusian Investigative Center (BIC) as part of their ongoing AntiFake News project, which has been gathering and examining false information campaigns since 2021.

The platform offers a comprehensive overview of the fake news landscape in Belarus, including visualizations and search functions to help users identify and understand disinformation tactics. It also provides insights into the media and individuals involved in spreading false narratives and allows users to explore specific examples of manipulation and distortion of information. This is a holistic view of how the propaganda machine works.

Dive into the AntiFake project and our methods of fact-checking.

“Potato prices have skyrocketed eightfold.” How News.by framed the exchange market price growth as a food crisis in Europe

A report by the First Information TV Channel claimed that Europe is on the verge of a food crisis, with potato prices reportedly skyrocketing to eight times their usual price. This is manipulation: the growth concerns exchange-traded prices, not retail prices. Although they have rebounded from record lows, they remain below levels seen in 2023 and early 2025.
