#Amsterdam municipality bans #Telegram on work phones over criminal use, #espionage #threat
Telegram is a “safe haven for hackers, cybercriminals, and drug dealers,” a spokesperson for Amsterdam’s IT alderman Alexander Scholtes told the broadcaster. The city is also concerned about possible espionage through the app, even though it no longer has official ties to #Russia. Telegram was set up in Russia, but the head office has since moved to #Dubai, and the #company is officially located in the Virgin Islands.

"Access to the Signal messaging app is blocked in connection with violation of the requirements of Russian legislation which must be complied with to prevent the use of messaging apps for terrorist and extremist aims,"
So thankful that Russia goes after those extremists using Signal! Russia already has enough on their hands dropping bombs on hospitals and supermarkets and invading other countries! Fuck off extremists!

#Russia last night’s railway sabotage attributed to #Ukraine SBU is rather impressive:
- First, fire broke out on a cargo train moving through a 15 km Severomuysky tunnel with 2-3 cisterns with fuel burning
- The tunnel has a much longer railway bypass, so the next trains were directed there - and blew up while they were crossing a Devil’s Pass bridge
The level of coordination deep in enemy terrain required for this is truly incredible.

The vehicles have won praise from soldiers — even after they’ve hit mines, most people inside survive with just minor injuries — but they have not been able to breach Russia’s defenses alone.

Russia's Defence Ministry said on Wednesday it would deem all ships travelling to Ukrainian ports to be potential carriers of military cargo and their flag countries to be parties to the conflict on the Ukrainian side.
The move follows Russia's decision this week to pull out of the U.N.-brokered Black Sea grain export deal which had guaranteed the safety of Ukrainian exports for the past year.

I'm struggling to comprehend the level of idiocy — or financial greed — that makes people such as Jorit blindly take Russian narratives for granted while ignoring the fact that Mariupol was a flourishing town, an industrial and cultural capital of the south of Ukraine. It was exclusively Russian artillery, bombing and tanks that turned it to ruins, that now are destroyed to much larger extent than Donetsk, that was allegedly "bombed for eight years" (it wasn't).
