Facebook and Twitter remove Russian embassy posts denying Mariupol hospital bombing
The removals aren't surprising given the stances of Meta and Twitter against Russia-based misinformation. However, there may still be room for more action.

We've asked Twitter for comment, but this suggests the fight over misinformation is far from over.
