Where does he live?[edit]

The article says he lives in Moscow then goes on to say he lives in Israel later in the same section. 66.65.48.102 (talk) 02:36, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. I've updated the article. Somers-all-the-time (talk) 13:53, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Russo-Ukrainian war[edit]

The article says that he left Yandex in June 2022 "after the start of Russian War in Ukraine" and links to Russo-Ukrainian War. However, the Russo-Ukrainian war started in 2014. He left Yandex after the start of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Whereas both statements are formally correct I changed to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:21, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
