TL;DR

An Israeli Ministry of Diaspora Affairs-funded covert online influence campaign aimed at swaying U.S. lawmakers and public opinion on the Gaza conflict has been exposed. The campaign, linked to the Israeli political consulting firm STOIC, targeted younger, progressive Americans with pro-Israeli content. Despite denials from Minister Amichai Chikli, the campaign has drawn criticism for inappropriate interference in U.S. politics and promoting divisive narratives.
