U.S. Indicts Russian Officers for Pre-Invasion Cyberattacks; Controversial Figures Make Headlines in Politics, Crime, and Tech

U.S. charges Russian military officers for cyberattacks on Ukraine; Malik Obama endorses Trump for president.
The United States has charged five Russian military officers and a Russian civilian for alleged cyberattacks on Ukraine's civilian infrastructure before the invasion, with a $1.6 million reward for information leading to their arrest.

In other news, Colin Gray, 54, was arrested for supplying the weapon in a deadly Georgia school shooting at Apalachee High School, reviving debates on US gun laws, and his son Colt faces felony murder charges.

Shifting to politics, Barack Obama's half-brother, Malik Obama, announced his support for Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential elections, praising Trump's straightforwardness and the 'Make America Great Again' slogan.

Speaking of Trump, he promised at the Republican Jewish Coalition in Las Vegas to revoke university accreditation and federal support if they spread antisemitic ideas, and plans to ban refugee resettlement from areas like Gaza if elected.

Meanwhile, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov criticized his arrest in France over extremist content, defending Telegram's efforts to remove harmful content and pledging improvements as the platform serves 950 million users globally.

Finally, Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden's son, pleaded guilty to nine tax evasion charges, admitting to not paying $1.4 million in taxes, with sentencing scheduled for December 16 and potential penalties of 17 years in prison and over $1 million in fines.
