False video claims Hollywood stars were paid by USAID to visit Ukraine

A video claiming that USAID, the US government’s main overseas aid agency, has paid Hollywood celebrities millions of dollars to visit Ukraine has gone viral on social media and has been amplified by high-profile accounts like Elon Musk.

However, the clip is not real and has hallmarks of a Russian disinformation operation that the BBC has previously investigated.

BBC Verify’s Olga Robinson explains why.

Produced by Aisha Sembhi. Motion graphics by Mark Edwards. Additional reporting by Shayan Sardarizadeh.
