The UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) has disrupted Russian money laundering operations involving cryptocurrencies, leading to 84 arrests and the seizure of over $25.5 million in cash and cryptocurrency. The investigation, known as “Operation Destabilise,” also led to the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announcing sanctions against Russian-speaking individuals and four businesses involved in sanction-evasion networks.
The operation was not limited to the UK and included actions taken in the Middle East, Russia, and South America.
