Russians paying bribes to escape from war. Open proceedings include cases from Chasiv Yar – intel
Among the more than 100 open proceedings, there are 38 cases concerning the military personnel of the 102nd Motorized Rifle Regiment, which is operating near Chasiv Yar in Donbas

Personnel problems are worsening in the Russian army: the number of those willing to leave the service and avoid death in the war waged against Ukraine is growing. Because of this, criminal proceedings are opened en masse in Russia, reported the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense.

According to the DIU, such problems are evidenced, in particular, by the sharp outbreak of registered criminal proceedings over bribery in the Russian army.

As an example, intelligence officers cited the Southern Military District of the Russian Armed Forces, where in five months of 2024, the number of open criminal cases for illegal dismissal from service due to health conditions and granting of illegal vacations tripled.

Almost half of such proceedings are being investigated against the soldiers of the 8th Combined Arms Army of Russia, the Defense Intelligence noted. Also, another 36% belongs to the 58th Combined Arms Army of the Russian Federation, the commander of which was arrested in the spring of this year on corruption charges.

The intelligence noted that more than 100 proceedings opened against officials of the military units of the Southern Military District of the Russian Armed Forces relate to bribery for granting leave from the combat zone.

Top Moscow Exchange Manager Drowns in Latest Mystery Death
Atop Russian financier has died after reportedly falling off of a ship into waters near Moscow.

Georgy Chibisov, the Marketing Director of the Moscow Exchange, drowned on July 27, after he fell from a cruise ship that was making its way down the Moskva River for a bachelor party.

Chibisov, 44, was reported missing by his wife, before his body was found in the river by authorities. According to Russian media, Chibisov was not originally considered missing by other party attendees. His body was found the following day on July 28.

Russian news outlet MKRU reported that "one of the vacationers neglected safety rules", and that Chibisov tried to use the diving platform alone before falling into the water. No passengers saw what happened to Chibisov, as no staff were nearby and the captain was driving the yacht.

Rudy Giuliani's Ukraine Ally Runs for Office in Russia
Aformer Ukrainian MP who was accused of trying to harm the 2020 U.S. presidential bid of Joe Biden is seeking political office in Russia, it has been reported.

Andriy Derkach, who fled Ukraine for Russia, has become a candidate in the Astrakhan region for the Russian Federation Council, state news agency Tass reported.

Derkach is among three candidates in the southwestern Russian region who are competing to replace the senator, Alexander Bashkin, whose term in the government's upper house ends in September, the agency said.

The U.S. government had accused Derkach of promoting unsubstantiated narratives about Biden to American media and officials, including some close to former President Donald Trump. Newsweek has contacted Derkach for comment by email.

Moldova Expels Russian Embassy Staffer Following Spy Allegations
On the morning of August 1, Russian Ambassador to Chișinău Oleg Vasnetsov was summoned to the Moldovan Ministry of Foreign Affairs and informed that a staff member of the embassy had been declared a persona non grata in the Republic of Moldova.

Following this, the Russian ambassador told the press that Moldova’s actions were "hostile" and that Moscow would respond accordingly.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Chișinău clarified that the Russian diplomat has 48 hours to leave the territory of the Republic of Moldova.

The expulsion came immediately after searches conducted on July 31 by the Intelligence and Security Service (SIS) and the Prosecutor’s Office for Combating Organized Crime and Special Cases (PCCOCS) at the Moldovan Parliament.

After these searches, a parliament member and a border police officer were detained for 72 hours on suspicion of treason and conspiracy. According to the prosecutor's office, they were collecting and passing on information to a staff member of the Russian embassy in Chișinău that "damages the interests of the Republic of Moldova."

In July 2023, Moldova expelled 45 Russian diplomats and embassy staff, citing a pattern of hostile actions that undermined the country’s stability. The move came after reports surfaced about the Russian embassy in Chisinau operating 28 suspected surveillance antennas on its rooftop. These revelations heightened concerns about Russia’s interference in Moldova’s internal affairs.

Exclusive-US Army stops paying soldier imprisoned in Russia, may prosecute him

The Army has stopped paying wages and allowances to a U.S. soldier sentenced last month to nearly four years in a Russian penal colony and may prosecute him if he returns to the United States, U.S. officials said.

Gordon Black, a 34-year-old staff sergeant, was convicted in Russia of theft and threatening murder. But he broke a series of Army rules first, traveling to Russia without U.S. military authorization, and flying through China to get there.

He was also having an extramarital affair - prohibited in the U.S. military - with a Russian woman named Alexandra Vashchuk, who he met during a deployment in South Korea. During leave from the military, Black followed her to Russia's far eastern city of Vladivostok, where she reported him to the police after an argument.

A senior U.S. defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity, drew a comparison to the case of U.S. Army Private Travis King, who last year ran into North Korea and was taken into custody there. Once the United States secured his release, King was charged in October by the Army with crimes including desertion.

"When Black is back in the United States, there will be probably consequences, just as Private King is experiencing consequences for essentially unacceptable behavior," the official said.

"So the Army is going to do the right thing in terms of punishing bad behavior."

EU and Ukraine Dismiss Hungary Oil Scare, Saying Transit is Fine
The European Union rebuffed concerns from Hungary and Slovakia over a decision by Ukraine to sanction a major Russian oil company and rejected for now their request for urgent consultations over the security of crude supplies.

European Commission Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis notified Hungary and Slovakia on Thursday that a preliminary analysis shows sanctions Ukraine introduced on Russia’s Lukoil PJSC in June don’t affect transit operations carried out by trading companies via the Druzhba pipeline as long as Lukoil isn’t the formal owner of the oil.

As the consignees of the oil, the traders involved in the transactions are considered by Ukraine to be the owners of the oil, according to two people familiar with the matter. One such company is Litasco SA, which is owned by Lukoil. Others are Tatneft-Europe AG, Blackford Corporation Ltd. and Normeston Trading SA.

Litasco isn’t under Ukrainian sanctions, Taras Kachka, Ukraine’s deputy economy minister, told Bloomberg.

In July, scheduled deliveries to Hungary and Slovakia where Litasco was indicated as the consignee were cancelled by the Russian side, the people said.

Kadyrov threatens to kill hijab opponents, including Putin — video

The Kremlin’s puppet governor in Russian-occupied Ichkeria, Ramzan Kadyrov, threatened to kill opponents of the hijab during a meeting with his followers, according to a video shared by the Telegram channel ChTD on Aug. 1.

"Chechnya is only against the wearing of the burqa, but those who advocate the ban on hijabs should be killed," Kadyrov said.

"Whoever tells my daughter to take off her hijab, I will kill him immediately. I'll shoot him right away, no matter who he is. This is my personal enemy, the enemy of Islam."

One of the opponents of wearing hijabs in schools is Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

"There is nothing good in this," Putin said during one of his "direct lines."

"There are, of course, national peculiarities in some republics. But what you mentioned is not a national peculiarity. This is a demonstration of a well-known attitude towards religion. In our country, in Muslim regions, there has never been such a tradition."

Warlord Kadyrov is likely aware of Putin's stance on hijabs.

The 3rd Assault Brigade used attack drones to destroy a Russian missile launcher based on the RBU-6000 Smerch-2 naval rocket launcher.

The news was made public by the brigade’s press service.

The unmanned systems battalion of the 3rd Brigade detected and destroyed a Russian self-propelled multiple rocket launcher system that was firing at Ukrainian positions in the Kharkiv region.

The battalion’s operators struck the vehicle’s chassis twice and hit the launcher. Judging by the absence of detonation, it appears that the vehicle managed to fire its ammunition before burning out after sustaining damage.

Russia legalizes cryptocurrency mining as global sanctions rattle traditional finances
Russia’s government passed two laws on Tuesday that legalize virtual currency mining and pave the way for its central bank to use crypto for international payments.

The lower house of the Russian parliament, the State Duma, has approved cryptomining for legal entities and entrepreneurs. Those interested need to submit their information to relevant Russian agencies so that they can be tracked, according to the new rules.

Individuals who stay within government-set energy limits can mine without registration. The government will also be able to ban mining in certain regions of Russia.

According to the law, miners will be required to report their activity to the local financial monitoring service and provide the addresses of their wallets to Russia’s security services.

His lawyer Roman Petrov told Danish publications Nyheder and TV2 about this. The lawyer told RBC the details of the case and provided documents.

He received a temporary residence permit until October 19. When his legal stay in Russia was about to expire, he applied for an extension of the residence permit, but the process dragged on. To resolve the issue, he contacted the Ministry of Defense, believing that this would allow him to obtain citizenship and stay in the country. In January 2024, the man was notified of the extension of the residence permit, but by that time he had been sent to the combat zone.

RBC sent a request to the Ministry of Defense.

Ukraine Launched More Long-Range Attack Drones Than Russia In July

For the first time, Ukraine is launching more long-range drone attacks than Russia. Published figures suggest that Russia sent 426 Shahed-type drones into Ukraine in July. Over the same period Ukraine hit back with over 520 drones.

Russia appears to be less effective at shooting down the attackers as the Ukrainian strikes appear to be causing greater economic damage on oil refineries and other targets. Ukraine may be gaining the advantage in the strategic war of long-range drone strikes – and President Zelensky promise more and better strike drones to come.

Russia's Largest Oil Refinery Caught Fire in Omsk
A fire broke out on the territory of an oil refinery owned by Gazprom Neft in Omsk, 112 reports.

According to sources, one of the AVT-10 oil refining units is on fire, and the fire area has reached 300 square meters.

The Omsk Oil Refinery is the largest in Russia. Its capacity is 22 million tons of oil per year, and the number of employees exceeds 3.5 thousand.

Videos circulated on social media show that the fire broke out at the AVT-10 primary oil refining unit, which has a capacity of 8.6 million tons per year, or 40% of the refinery's total capacity, Reuters writes. According to the agency's sources, AVT-10 must be shut down due to the fire.

The plant's press service confirmed the fire, although it said that the fire had already been extinguished and that the refinery itself continued to operate in "normal mode." The fire broke out "in an auxiliary room of the pumping station," and was extinguished by automated systems, as a result of which no one was hurt, Interfax quotes a representative of the enterprise.

In January-December 2023, the Omsk Oil Refinery processed 21.28 million tons of oil, which is 7.7% of all refining in Russia. The plant produced 5.07 million tons of motor gasoline (11.5% of production in Russia), 8.1 million tons of diesel fuel (9.2%), and 1.63 million tons of jet fuel (15%).

Since the beginning of the year, Russian oil refineries and oil depots have been attacked by Ukrainian drones at least 40 times, and a number of large refineries have been forced to halt production after fires and equipment damage.

According to Rosstat, gasoline production in Russia fell by 20% from January to May, and diesel fuel by 11% compared to late December levels. In early June, Russian authorities classified fuel production statistics, citing sanctions and the threat of market “manipulation.”

Explosions reported across occupied Crimea
Residents reported hearing multiple explosions across occupied Crimea overnight on Aug. 2, the Telegram channel Crimean Wind reported.

Residents in Sevastopol, Simferopol, and Yevpatoria heard explosions around 1:30 a.m. local time, according to local media reports.

According to Crimean Wind, local residents reported an alleged strike on a shipyard used to repair ships for Russia's Black Sea Fleet off the bay of Sevastopol, but the reports are still being clarified.

Mikhail Razvozhayev, the Russian-installed head of Sevastopol claimed that air defenses are operational over the city. He later added that occupied Crimea was under threat of ballistic missile attacks.

Photos of falling debris and small fires could be seen in Sevastopol, with reports of power lines damaged. Razvozhayev claimed that the falling debris was a result of downed missiles and drones.

Russian state-run TASS news agency later reported that air defenses had shot down at least four aerial targets throughout the attack.

The Kyiv Independent cannot not verify the claims, and Ukraine has not yet commented on the alleged attack.

Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, Ukraine has regularly launched attacks on occupied Crimea. Overnight on July 26, Ukraine's General Staff confirmed it had hit Russia's Saky military airfield in occupied Crimea.

Russia's Gazprom net losses nearly double year on year
Russian gas giant Gazprom suffered net losses from January to June 2024 almost double those in the same period last year, the Ukrainian media outlet enkorr reported on July 31.

Losses in the first half of 2024 totalled 480.64 billion rubles ($5.5 billion), while those in the first half of 2023 totalled 255 billion rubles ($2.95 billion), according to Gazprom financial statements seen by the outlet.

Gazprom has had a turbulent time since the launch of Russia's full-scale invasion – its revenue fell by 30% last year with a net loss of $6.9 billion, the largest in 25 years.

Moscow's war in Ukraine led to worsening relations with Europe, limiting the operations of the company.

The energy giant relied on European markets and failed to find alternatives after the EU moved away from Russian gas. While Gazprom found some success in other foreign markets, this only accounts for 5-10% of its European sales.

Moscow has heavily taxed Gazprom's revenues over the last two years and the company paid $28 billion to the government in 2023, accounting for 9% of the government's revenue last year.

In June, a report commissioned by the company said it would not be able to recover losses incurred from Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine for at least 10 years.

The company said exports to Europe are expected to average 50-75 billion cubic meters (bcm) annually by 2035, only a third of the gas monopoly's prewar exports.

The forecast is "grim," Elina Ribakova, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, told the Financial Times at the time.

"Gazprom is at a dead end, and they're very much aware of it," Ribakova said after reading the report.

Russia's Crackdown on Migrant Workers Backfires
Apush by Russia's authorities to restrict immigration has reportedly caused supply chain problems for grocery stores as labor shortages continue to impact the country's wartime economy.

Russian business outlet RBC reported that X 5 Group, which owns the convenience store chain Pyaterochka and supermarket chain Perekrestok, did not have enough staff for its distribution center in the Yaroslavl region northeast of Moscow. This was partly due to the departure of migrant workers.

Images of empty store shelves in the cities of Yaroslavl and Rybinsk have appeared on social networks and local media, sparking customer complaints.

The Mash telegram channel published a video of empty shelves in Pyaterochka stores, which had not been restocked with bread, cereals, flour, spices or water since last week. Local news outlet 76.ru said that there are no water bottles in some stores.

Mash linked the empty store shelves to recent raids on deported migrants and said there was a shortage of 1,000 workers at the distribution center in Yaroslavl.

Russian authorities have stepped up scrutiny on the legal status of migrant workers after Tajik nationals were accused of carrying out of carrying a terrorist attack at a concert at Crocus City Hall in Moscow in March, which killed more than 140 people.

Facilities run by companies that traditionally employ immigrants have been reportedly raided by police, sparking concerns about a crackdown on citizens of Central Asian countries.
