Ukraine just won its largest banking fraud case: on 10 Nov, a London court ordered Privatbank's owners Kolomoisky&Boholiubov to pay Ukraine $3bn in damages

A truly infernal video has surfaced from attack by Ukrainian forces yesterday, on the Tuapse seaport. The massive explosion points to a serious payload carried by an USV. Extra credit goes to the cameraman, who happened to be in the right place at the right time

Russian propaganda has different layers regarding the channels, intensity, and quality of the narratives it uses.

Usually, the public and even many "experts" see only a limited range of what is happening, or they refuse to see more because they are even part of it. 🧵

I want to point to this thing today. On the day we learn that Russia essentially failed at mass producing domestic processors they introduce a new tax which will be used to subsidize domestic electronics production. It's baffling.

Russia will introduce a new tax on electronic devices in the aim to boost domestic production. Initially it will be imposed on finished goods like laptops and smartphones then on parts of devices and appliances.
