Fact-checkers across Europe are ramping up their efforts against disinformation ahead of the EU elections.

False messages spreading throughout the EU focus on topics such as the EU's support for Ukraine, climate actions, immigration, and the rights of LGBTQI+ individuals, reports the European Digital Media Observatory in Florence to Ekot.
