Investigators establish link between Moscow terrorist attack suspects and Ukrainian nationalists
Large sums of money were transferred to the Crocus City Hall attackers from Ukraine, the Russian Investigative Committee has said




The suspects in last week’s Moscow terrorist attack were linked to Ukrainian nationalists, the Russian Investigative Committee stated on Thursday, citing preliminary findings. The perpetrators had received “significant sums of money” from Ukraine, the law enforcement agency said.

The investigators have obtained “substantiated evidence” that the suspected assailants received funding from Ukraine in the form of cryptocurrency, which was then used to prepare the terrorist attack, the statement read.

Law enforcement officers also identified and detained another suspect who was allegedly involved in financing the attack, the Investigative Committee said, without identifying the individual.


Earlier, the head of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), Aleksandr Bortnikov, told reporters that the US, UK and Ukraine may have been behind the attack. The Ukrainians may have been preparing a “window” for them to cross back over the border, the official said. “On the other side, they were to be welcomed as heroes,” he added.

The four suspected perpetrators had previously been identified as radical Islamists, recruited through an online chat apparently operated by the Afghanistan-based offshoot of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS). However, the investigators said at that time that, despite the group’s claim of responsibility for the terrorist act, another party, such as a Ukrainian intelligence agency, may have been involved in the plot.

Last Friday, a group of men armed with assault rifles stormed the Crocus City Hall music venue in the Moscow suburb of Krasnogorsk, just before a concert by the rock band Picnic. The attack and a subsequent blaze started by the perpetrators claimed the lives of 140 people and injured some 200 others.

The assailants were apprehended hours after the attack in Russia’s Bryansk Region, which borders Ukraine.

BusinessRe: Which Of The Two Pricing Options Do You Think Customers Will Grab Faster? by maidstone: 7:35pm On Mar 14, 2024
Proserpina:
The question says which option will the CUSTOMER grab?
The focus is on the "customer" here not the company's well-being . After getting accurate deductions on most the customers choice will most likely be then the company can look into what impact the customer's Choice will have on them.

The focus is customer for now.
The truth is it's what suits the company. They don't care about you. Supermarkets abroad, for example, often employ Option B

It's not about you even though they disguise it and make it look so
BusinessRe: Which Of The Two Pricing Options Do You Think Customers Will Grab Faster? by maidstone:
Most of the replies above show that you guys aren't into management or business administration. When a business entity comes up with this sort of promo, often, it's not about you the customer. It's about the company's wellbeing.

Most companies, especially, supermarkets, would prefer Option B because Option B will help them to shift more goods. As in sell more goods than Option A

As regards Option A, most customers would prefer that as they most likely came in to buy 1 piece of the item on promo anyway. Most wouldn't need 2

Thus, Option B will be more impactful on the bottomline of the company in question

This is getting brutal and serious each passing day! shocked
Civilians fearing that the Taliban could reimpose the kind of brutal rule that all but eliminated women's rights rushed to leave the country, lining up at cash machines to withdraw their life savings.
Helicopters buzzed overhead, some apparently evacuating personnel at the U.S. Embassy. Several other Western missions were also preparing to get staff out.

The Taliban seized nearly all of Afghanistan in just over a week, despite the hundreds of billions of dollars spent by the U.S. and NATO over nearly two decades to build up Afghan security forces. Just days earlier, an A7merican military assessment estimated it would be a month before the capital would come under insurgent pressure.

CareerRe: As A Fresh Graduate Is Relocating To Canada For Msc Better Than Getting A Job by maidstone: 1:30pm On Aug 04, 2021
donlet:
As a fresh graduate in Nigeria after the NYSC, is relocating to canada through study Visa to do Msc and possbily getting a canadian PR after graduation better than trying to get a job here in Nigeria.

We all know it quite difficult to get job here but the cost of education in canada too is a factor one has to consider.

What is your take on this?

Let's share opinions.
From your post, you don't even have either yet. A job has not been offered to and you don't have the means to relocate Canada yet.


So, we can't really advise you yet

PoliticsRe: Shehu Sani: Governors Claim They Don't Control Police But Do So During Elections by maidstone: 12:36pm On Feb 18, 2021
Shehu goofed

They don't even control police during elections if the president is not in support

The president is always the one in control

Did Fayose control police during the last election in Ekiti?

Did the last governor in Kwara control police during the last general elections?


This, obviously, is a stupid comment by Mr Shehu

SAMBISA FOREST IS:

686 square kilometers.

6.8 million hectares.

68 million plots of land@ 100 feets by 100 feets.

5 cows per plot, it can take 340 million cows.

340 million cows is 18 times the current number of cows in Nigeria.

What exactly are the herdsmen looking for? ����

" DR. NURA ALKALI (a Fulani and a consultant physician at ABU teaching hospital, Nigeria) wrote the following:

How ironic that, today, it is the Fulani who lack leaders to guide them and pursue their interests through legal ways. Please, do’n’t mention “Miyetti Allah”, which is a cattle-breeders’ association. I have never owned a cow in my life, and I don’t intend to, meaning I have no business with Miyetti Allah. (“Mi Yetti Allah” means “I thank God” in Fulfulde. I’m referring to the group here, not the literal meaning).

Miyetti Allah claims to represent the Cattle Fulani who live as nomads. That is their opinion. In my opinion, it is the blind leading the blind. Only the blind will insist on living a 17th century life in 2018. 50 years ago, humans conquered space to land on the moon. Others decoded DNA, which advanced the science of animal breeding to levels never before imagined in history. But we still have people pursuing an impossible nomadic lifestyle to raise cattle.

Please, when you travel from Bauchi to Yola, look on both sides of the road during your journey. All you will see are farmlands up to the horizon. The few vacant spots are the rocky hills around the Gombe-Adamawa border, and between Dindima and Kangere, near Bauchi. Farmers avoid them because plants won’t grow there, meaning cattle too cannot graze. And no doubt, beyond the horizon are villages and more farmlands.

Keep in mind that Adamawa and Bauchi are among Nigeria’s largest states. Toro LGA in Bauchi State (6,932 Sq. Km) is larger than each SE state except Enugu (7,161 Sq. Km). The whole of Ebonyi State (5,533 Sq. Km) – which welcomes the proposed cattle ranches – boasts of only 80% of the land area of Toro LGA. And Ebonyi is now in the news for a deadly fight over farmlands with a community in neighbouring Cross-River State. So, is a cattle ranch more viable in Toro or in Ebonyi?

It is northern states that have land for cattle ranches, which by their nature, have enough grass and water all year round – thus removing the need for a herdsman from Jigawa or Sokoto journeying to Ebonyi and Delta states in the dry season in search of pasture. So, why a cattle ranch in Ebonyi, unless Igbos also want to raise cattle? This is what I’m talking about. Beside being blind, Miyetti Allah also thrives on conflicts.

In any case, Town Fulanis like me are in limbo. “Tabital Pulaaku” is solely about Fulani culture, unlike “Afenifere” and “Eze Ndi Igbo” that champion Yoruba and Igbo causes. For the Fulanis, neither the Sultan of Sokoto (who heads JNI) nor the Lamido of Adamawa (who heads Tabital Pulaaku) is an overall Fulani leader; nor indeed, any group.

Sadly, a group of riff-raffs called Miyetti Allah are now mistaken as Fulani leaders."

Initially the Fulani ruling elites insisted that herdsmen must have access to lands everywhere and rights to forage on any lands. With campaigns by Fulani elites like Nura Alkali, the Federal Government and Miyetti Allah became converted and began the search for cattle colonies and Fulani Villages all over Nigeria.

The problems of herdsmen destroying other people's farm lands, crops and the crimes committed in raping, kidnapping, robbing and killing can only be solved by the Federal Government. It should allow the Nigerian Police to enforce Open Grazing Prohibition Laws passed by affected states and assist the northern states to build Rugas for herdsmen and encourage them to ranch their cattle in the Rugas. Cattle farming is a business as other livestock farming. But with a one sided sympathy for the Fulani herdsmen, the Federal Government is undermining the unity of the country.
