What do assassinations, cyber hacks and disinformation have in common?
They’re all weapons used by states against each other in a grey zone of harm that sits - deliberately - under the threshold of war, but could be just as dangerous if ignored.
Sky News journalist Deborah Haynes explores this often invisible battlefield, where anything can be - and is - used as a weapon and anyone, anywhere can be a target.
This episode explores a battle between truth and lies that’s threatening democracies around the world.
Haynes speaks to the author of a book on the history of disinformation, Professor Thomas Rid.
And she visits a remote cottage in Scotland, home to one of the UK’s best-known fighters of suspected Russian and Chinese fake news.
