    I was particularly curious about how this might apply to disinfo campaigns designed to facilitate genocide and coups. Turns out there has already been at least one incident of radio journalists being convicted of tacilitating genocide.

    other parts of Khan’s article that mention disinformation as a separate area of concern and “gray zone” tactics that “operate in the area between war and peace.” As a precedent for sources of disinformation being charged under international law, Chesney points to rare incidents, like radio journalists who were convicted in an international criminal tribunal for helping incite genocide in Rwanda in 1994.
