Army Creates Unit To Wage Psychological War

The Army is setting up a new unit that will use psychological operations and social media to help fight wars "in the information age".

Head of the Army, General Sir Nick Carter, said the move was about trying to operate "smarter".

The 77th Brigade, made up of reservists and regular troops, will be formally created in April.
