I’m looking for a little help about dealing with the seemingly mass attack of Russian bots. What's the best way of handling this?

I report this Russian propaganda as 'Something Else' and bookmark a post, so that I can later see if the account is still running, then I block the account. I also leave the checkbox on, for the server itself to receive my report

Many accounts are not suspended

Oh! By chance, I read this today. What a lovely person the sweet little #psychopath #Putin is:

Russia's school propaganda was highlighted by Oscar-winning film - but does it work?

The messages are clear: the full-scale invasion is a defensive war and patriotism means unquestionable loyalty.
