Researchers at the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong Foundation identify Hong Kong as a key hub in the illicit trade of Western military technology to Russia.
Traders in Hong Kong and mainland China are supplying Russia’s war machine with European electronics and military technology, exploiting loopholes in international sanctions, according to the report ‘Bypassing the Blockade: How Hong Kong Feeds European Technology Into Russia’s War in Ukraine‘. Researchers at the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong Foundation, an advocacy group, found that the merchants that have not been sanctioned have enabled hundreds of semiconductors, sensors, electrical connectors, microchip components and other devices produced by Western specialized firms to reach the battlefield in Ukraine. Many of these products, including some designed by the Dutch NXP Semiconductor and the German Infineon Technologies, are used to build cars, aircraft parts and other civilian purposes, but also used to make drones and missiles.

The report, “Disrupted, Throttled, and Blocked: State Censorship, Control, and Increasing Isolation of Internet Users in Russia”, documents the impact of the government’s increasing technological capacities and control over the country’s internet infrastructure.
Human Rights Watch (HRW) found that this allows the authorities to carry out more widespread and nontransparent blocking and throttling of unwanted websites and censorship circumvention tools, as well as internet disruptions and shutdowns under the pretext of ensuring public safety and national security.

The REPowerEU Roadmap, presented today by the European Commission, paves the way to ensure the EU’s full energy independence from Russia.
The EU will end its dependency on Russian energy by stopping the import of Russian gas and oil and phasing out Russian nuclear energy, while ensuring stable energy supplies and prices across the Union. Despite the significant progress achieved under the REPowerEU Plan and via sanctions since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in 2024 the EU saw a rebound in Russian gas imports. More coordinated actions are therefore needed, as the EU’s overdependency on Russian energy imports is a security threat. The roadmap sets out a gradual removal of Russian oil, gas and nuclear energy from the EU markets which will take place in a coordinated and secure manner as we advance our energy transition. The measures have been designed to preserve the security of the EU’s energy supply while limiting any impact on prices and markets. As of 2025, the global LNG supplies are foreseen to grow rapidly, while gas demand will decrease. With the full implementation of the energy transition framework and the Action Plan for Affordable Energy, the EU is expected to replace up to 100 billion cubic meters of natural gas by 2030, which means a decrease in demand by 40-50 bcm by 2027. At the same time, LNG capacities are expected to increase by around 200 bcm by 2028, which is five times more than current EU imports of Russian gas. This roadmap will be followed by legislative proposals by the Commission in June, 2025.

Forbidden Stories investigated the detention and death of Ukrainian journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, which came on the heels of a reporting trip to Zaporizhzhia aimed at telling the stories of Ukrainian civilians unlawfully held by Russia.
Viktoriia Roshchyna was pronounced dead in Russian captivity in October 2024, after being secretly held for months in Russian-occupied Ukraine and a Russian prison. In February 2025, her body was repatriated. The body of Viktoriia Roshchyna was returned to Ukraine in February 2025; the body showed marks of torture and was returned without some organs. Forbidden Stories was able to consult with two of Viktoriia’s sources in Russian-held Ukraine, and with her editor, who confirmed she had traveled to Zaporizhzhia to investigate the torture of civilians in informal detention centers. Viktoriia had begun to list the names of Russian occupiers responsible for detention and torture, including FSB agents.
