Israeli-Born Oligarch Ilan Shor Linked to Russia's $14 Billion Sanctions-Evading Network

Israeli-born oligarch Ilan Shor is reportedly behind Russia's A7 payment network, which has processed over $14 billion in cash since the Ukraine invasion. The U.S. Treasury sanctioned A7, accusing it of evading sanctions and supporting Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hamas. Shor, convicted in Moldova for a $1 billion bank theft, fled to Israel before moving to Russia. The revelations coincide with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's calls for Israel to prepare for potential international sanctions.
