trying and they re being arrested for it. but they re still trying. in ukraine today, we learned that ukrainian four assists have succeeded in stopping one part of the russian war. one part that apparently maybe threatening us as well. this is an interesting story that has evolved, sort of scary direction over the course of the day today. the first reports came in this morning that russia had finally unleashed one of the things that everybody didn t kind of waiting to see from them in this war. they d unleash, or at least try to unleash, a major cyberattack against ukraine. russia, after all, has you cyberattacks against ukraine like for target practice in recent years. you will recall, they shut down the electrical gate in ukraine in the winter of 2015 and then they did it again in the winter 2016. the united states government, u.s. justice department actually indicted six russian military intelligence officers, six gru officers in 2020. we even have their fbi wanted posters from that
the united states government, the u.s. justice department actually indicted six russian military intelligence officers, six gru officers, in 2020, and even have that fbi wanted poster from that indictment. the u.s. indictment of the six russians for them being part of the unit to shut down the electrical grid in ukraine twice and cyber attacks on the last french presidential election and cyber attacks on the 2018 olympics, the u.s. justice department indicted those six russian officers from that military hacking group in 2020. are they going to ever face trial? well, as long as those guys stay in russia, the u.s. is not going to arrest them but that is a live indictment and those russian military officers are wanted in the united states. but today, early today, the ukrainian authorities announced that that same russian military hacking unit, the one that we have all of the officers under indictment from, that same hacking unit just tried the
