A network of suspicious Chinese-linked X (formerly Twitter) accounts has simultaneously posted similar content related to Vice President Sara Duterte, boosting social media engagement around her.

A wave of suspicious X (formerly Twitter) accounts simultaneously posted screenshots of the debunked “polvoron” video, which falsely showed President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. using illegal drugs, just days after the Philippines passed laws asserting its sovereignty over the West Philippine Sea.

A Facebook user posted a reel showing the photo of President Xi Jinping and President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. and falsely claimed that the Philippines and China had finally reconciled.
