Two Americans and five Russian nationals were charged in a plot to smuggle military-grade equipment to Russia, according to an indictment unsealed yesterday by the Department of Justice.
The group faces 16 counts of conspiracy and other charges related to a global money laundering scheme in which the defendants “unlawfully purchased and exported highly sensitive and heavily regulated electronic components, some of which can be used in the development of nuclear and hypersonic weapons, quantum computing and other military applications,” the DoJ said.

Perhaps it has been going on from the beginning of this war. Perhaps the rocket/ missile that landed in Polish Territory was an armament that these smugglers , or others redirected from delivery to Ukrainian Forces .
And Russia used it leaving Ukrainian forces to take the blame.?,,.
