Investigators allege Israeli influence in elections globally.

(RT) ⸻ A secretive Israeli group allegedly manipulated more than 30 elections worldwide using hacking and state-of-the art disinformation techniques, according to an investigation conducted by an international consortium of journalists. The team, known as 'Team Jorge', is run by Tal Hanan, a 50-year-old former Israeli secret services operative. The reporters passed themselves as prospective clients while covertly recording several hours of footage inside the meetings with the unit's members. Hanan allegedly told reporters that his services could be used by both private companies and intelligence agencies, with operations taking place in Europe and Africa, as well as in North, Central and South America. The key tool in the group's arsenal appears to be a software package called Advanced Impact Media Solutions, or Aims, which is believed to be controlling some 30,000 sophisticated bots on various social media platforms. French BFM TV Channel suspended one of its anchors, Rachid M'Barki, after undercover journalists were reportedly told by one of 'Team Jorge' members that the group was behind one report broadcasted by the outlet.
