Russian actors made a video that’s been circulating that purportedly shows people from another country illegally voting in the United States, U.S. intelligence officials said on Nov. 1.

The intelligence community (IC) “assesses that Russian influence actors manufactured a recent video that falsely depicted individuals claiming to be from Haiti and voting illegally in multiple counties in Georgia,” the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the FBI, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said in a joint statement.
