Russia-linked website evades Singapore government blocking with new branding, study finds

SINGAPORE: A study reveals that the Russia-linked site Asianews.io has resurfaced in Singapore after being blocked as Alamak.io. Researchers from the S Rajaratnam School of International Studies noted that both sites share the same operator and content, raising concerns about ongoing threats of hostile information campaigns. The Ministry of Home Affairs is monitoring Asianews.io, which has thus far not targeted Singaporeans directly, highlighting the evolving nature of such threats.
