CLAIM · ASSESSED ~ · CONFIDENCE 0.68
The EU imposed sanctions on Russian corporate group ABS Electro over the supply chain producing the 'Kometa' navigation module used in drones and missiles.
WHY THIS MATTERS · This matters because Russia has resumed hitting Ukraine's grid substations heading into a war-strained year and just opened a new front across the Oskil river near Kupiansk, threatening both civilian heat and a fresh Ukrainian defensive collapse.
