What happened

On November 23 and 24, 2025, Facebook pages published videos created using artificial intelligence in which a person with a microphone asked supposed expatriate citizens if they would vote on December 28, while some purportedly declared they would support Albin Kurti.

Fact-checkers including hibrid.info and kallxo.com verified that the images were not real and the citizens depicted did not exist, with analysis by platforms Hive Moderation and Wasitai confirming the content was generated by artificial intelligence.

Reported impact

The videos formed part of a broader disinformation campaign dominating Kosovan media and social networks, creating considerable confusion in the public during the period leading up to the December 28, 2025 elections.
