Summary/Abstract: The article attempts a philosophical understanding of the features of the information war in the media space in the context of Russia's large-scale aggression against Ukraine. It is noted that the technologies of information war are the most complex of all methods of manipulating public consciousness due to their systematic nature, variety of forms and deliberate masking of their elements by the warring parties. It is concluded that the space of the information society is saturated with elements of information wars and various types of manipulative information. Technologies of information war, applied through mass media within the framework of the global information environment, on the one hand, can create elements of the global media picture of the world, and on the other hand, are practically the only means of exposing it. It is emphasized that such a situation at the global level of the information environment creates significant difficulties for orientation in the media space of the information society and creates the need to differentiate the criteria of the quality of the information circulating in the media environment of modern society.
