В Кунаре, Афганистан, странным образом погибли трое талибов ТТП, включая высокоп. полевого командира Умара Шахида, когда были приглашены на обед (плов). Возможно, речь идёт об отравлении. На месте якобы арестован злоумышленник.
Говорят, что убитый командир провёл десятилетия в тюрьме Баграм и был освобожден после прихода талибов к власти. #Афганистан @ConflictZone5

In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government. At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised. After fleeing Russia, the brothers founded Telegram as a way to communicate outside the Kremlin's orbit. They now run it from Dubai, and Pavel Durov says it has more than 500 million monthly active users. For tech stocks, “the main thing is yields,” Essaye said. So, uh, whenever I hear about Telegram, it’s always in relation to something bad. What gives?
