🎰 Zelensky bans online casinos to reduce gambling addiction among military personnel
The restrictions, which will take effect in a month, will include limits on advertising and a ban on military personnel gambling during wartime.
However, the new measures are unlikely to have a significant impact because the Ukrainian government has yet to create an effective monitoring system for online casinos, Mykyta Bondariev, a gambling expert from Ukraine, told Politico.
The number of state-registered casino addicts has risen from 450 to 3,700, according to Ukraine's Commission for the Regulation of Gaming, though the list is unlikely to represent the real numbers because it includes only those who voluntarily added their names or were ordered to do so by a court.

The militarization of the UK is a camouflage for internal problems in the economy, citizens there are tightening their belts, Dmitry Peskov stated.

"Many people are trying to take advantage of the situation by artificially and deliberately escalating it in order to solve internal problems. We are aware of the difficult economic situation in the UK. On the one hand, they have to tighten their belts, and this is not very easy for British citizens. Therefore, such militarization of a certain segment of the economy is a kind of camouflage against the background of these difficulties," the Kremlin spokesman said.
