This was reported by the speaker of the Ukrainian Cyber Alliance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ruheight?hc_ref=ART0T7BV2rFxKQBxSIj9XpCDVe3SJftcL2tu1O4LQ09bH9nDqKxiZl8efufA6_IpF_c&amp;amp;fref=nf\">Sean Brian Townsend<\/a> on his Facebook page.\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ruheight\/posts\/396543610794003\r\n\r\nAs the evidence, the hacktivist referenced a publication of InformNapalm international intelligence community that contains screenshots of payroll records of Yuri Popov, a seaman from the 99th Tactical Group of the Russian Northern Fleet (military unit No. 74777). In the article <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/hacktivists-uncovered-russian-marine-taking-part-donbas-war\/\">Hacktivists uncovered Russian marine taking part in Donbas war<\/a>, published on September 10, 2016, the serviceman\u2019s personal identification number \u0415\u0425-616099 was presented, as well as his employee payroll number:\u00a01973598. Due to the vulnerability on the Russian Ministry of Defense website, it was also proved that the sailor, while fighting in the Donbass with the so-called DPR gangs, continued to receive a salary from the Russian Ministry of Defense.\r\n\r\nIt is interesting that the Russian Ministry of Defense has not noticed the leakage of documents for years and only after the Fontanka's publication burst into lament reproaching the journalists for unethical journalist conduct ( <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.fo\/Hh6iD\">archive<\/a> ):\r\n\r\n<em>\"In the pursuit of quoting, the Fontanka's editorial staff violated the limits of the permissible, including the basic concepts of decency and ethics of journalistic activity.\"<\/em>\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mod.mil.rus\/posts\/2044454399130639\r\n\r\nThus, the Russian Ministry of Defense officially confirmed that the leakage of information from its website did occur, and payroll records of servicemen spotted in the Donbas demonstrated that Russia directly finances the aggression against Ukraine. It is a good reason to apply new international sanctions on Russia for financing terrorism in the Donbas.\r\n\r\n<em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\"><img class=\"wp-image-8997 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/08\/InformNapalm_logo_05.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"134\" height=\"59\" \/><\/a><\/em>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center\"><em><strong>By<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/burkonews\"><strong>Roman Burko<\/strong><\/a> <strong>especally for InformNapalm<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Translated by\u00a0Andrii Gryganskyi, edited by Svitlana Kemblowski<\/em>\r\n<em> ( <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\"><strong>Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International - CC BY 4.0<\/strong><\/a> <strong>)<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center\"><em><strong>Re-post and share with friends.<\/strong><strong>\r\n<\/strong><strong>For notifications about InformNapalm investigations follow us on<\/strong><strong>\r\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/informnapalm24\/\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a><strong> \/ <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/InformNapalm\"><strong>Twitter<\/strong><\/a><strong> \/ <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/informnapalm\"><strong>Telegram<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12545","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/106"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12545"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12545\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12554,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12545\/revisions\/12554"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12548"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12545"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12545"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12545"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
