Fake text messages circulating purporting to be from presidential candidate
People in Czechia have reported receiving text messages purporting to be from presidential candidate Petr Pavel, which appear to be calling them up for mobilisation in Ukraine. The police are investigating and have asked that anyone who receives the fake messages report it to the police. Mr Pavel has responded by saying that he is not surprised that this has happened when his opponent Andrej Babiš has put up billboards as part of his campaign suggesting that Pavel would mobilise Czechia for war if he were elected.
