🇺🇦🇺🇸🇮🇱❗️🇷🇺 Ukraine's SBU Adopts Mossad Tactics, Strengthens CIA Ties
Ukrainian intelligence (SBU) is reportedly emulating Israel's Mossad, targeting "enemies abroad," as seen in the assassination of Russian General Igor Kirillov in Moscow.
The SBU recruits outside contractors—often via Telegram—offering money or using threats to ensure cooperation. Despite international calls for reform, the SBU remains highly influential, with Western countries bolstering ties amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
An anonymous diplomat noted: "The SBU has enormous power—some say too much." Close collaboration with the CIA includes millions invested in agent training.

Telegram Messenger Blocks Navalny Bot During Russian Election Telegram boasts 500 million users, who share information individually and in groups in relative security. But Telegram's use as a one-way broadcast channel — which followers can join but not reply to — means content from inauthentic accounts can easily reach large, captive and eager audiences. I want a secure messaging app, should I use Telegram? This ability to mix the public and the private, as well as the ability to use bots to engage with users has proved to be problematic. In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup. Similarly, security researchers found a network of deepfake bots on the platform that were generating images of people submitted by users to create non-consensual imagery, some of which involved children. The S&P 500 fell 1.3% to 4,204.36, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.7% to 32,943.33. The Dow posted a fifth straight weekly loss — its longest losing streak since 2019. The Nasdaq Composite tumbled 2.2% to 12,843.81. Though all three indexes opened in the green, stocks took a turn after a new report showed U.S. consumer sentiment deteriorated more than expected in early March as consumers' inflation expectations soared to the highest since 1981.
