An unassuming London terraced house has been revealed as sitting at the centre of 'sanctions-busting £1bn electronics sales to Russia' since the Ukraine invasion

The property, in Enfield, is home to Mykines Corporation LLC, which according to Russian records has sent semiconductors, servers, laptops, computer components, telecoms network equipment and consumer electronics into the country.About £790 million's worth of those goods are on a list of restricted export items from the UK to Russia, meaning a possible breach of sanctions - even though they entered the country via other countries like China, according to the Financial Times.

The man who rents the property as his home told the Mail on Sunday he was not even aware that it was being used as a business address.The house is owned by a Cypriot man, while the business belongs to a 53-year-old Ukrainian. The discovery was made by a Madrid-based analyst of customs flows, who passed on his findings to the Financial Times.
