The public complaints of a Ukrainian Facebook user have led to the uncovering of an elaborate Chinese sanctions-swerving scheme. Militarnyi reports that the deception aimed to funnel important glide bomb and kamikaze drone components to Russia undercover as car parts from a Taiwanese brand.
On Friday, Ukrainian activist Vadim Labas posted about how he was irritated to find out Taiwan's TRC was supplying what was, in effect, weapons parts to Russia. However, he shared an update on Monday as investigations revealed that a Chinese company had faked the TRC brand to swerve sanctions.
