As I said, original articles may be blocked in Russia or behind paywalls, so I couldn't find them, but here's an article from Russian media: https://www.vesti.ru/article/4524279
In that case you can't state that this is official because there is no way to check that for you (how convenient).
Anyway, there is no official statement about this. Don't believe everything you read!
I can only say that I have no doubt that Aeza have committed something that can be called a crime. I was only surprised by the government's sanctions against them, and I suspect that this happened because they are partly from Russia.
Aeza got sanctioned by the US and the UK over the [Russian-state sponsored] Doppelganger campaign that sort to interfere in Western democracies

There is absolutely no doubt this activity was coming from Aeza's network. You can argue there's some ambiguity about whether the Russian state was involved or not, but the low quality output, close alignment to Russian foreign goals and various links to known Russian state actors strongly suggest their involvement.
So, once again for the hard of learning, this isn't related to "criminal" activity. Aeza has been sanctioned for facilitating state-sponsored espionage against the UK and their allies, and no matter how you spin it they're as guilty as fuck.
Fixed it for you.
Anazing. Did you do it all yourself or did you get some help from ChatGPT?
Nah, copy-pasted from Western democracies a.k.a degenerations!
degenerations*
Fixed it for you.
Ty, was on my phone
You should have just used ChatGPT. But, to keep the subject on topic, you should try to get a job with the Doppelganger crew because you'd fit right in with that quality of content.
WOW are you by any chance Einstein's grandson? I do have a job and i don't need to use any chatgpt. You just need to be human and a bit of normal IQ to know that there is no such thing as "Western democracy"!
For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t take that Correctiv article as gospel. It alleges that people who have nothing to do with Aeza are Aeza or their collaborators, even though they are either IP brokers, or other clients of the IP brokers, etc. Even if you don’t know anyone personally, it’s trivial to check.
It wouldn’t be as big of a problem if they didn’t try to attribute /everything/ to Aeza — yet they are doing exactly that. They should be correct and impartial… Alas… too much to expect. Clearly.
Every time such threads quickly become a shitshow
Translated to English, it's a report that UK has budget allocations for Cyberwarfare against hostiles. It's only the Russians who self declared themselves a hostile and therefore including Russia.
Tl;dr more Russian propaganda and @rustelekom takes a little bit of propaganda and adds his own.
