  • Mikhail Sergeevich ZvinchukSeparately listed entityRU

    Also recorded as: Michail Sergejevitj Zvintjuk · Michail Sergejevič Zvinčuk

    Director General and founder of RYBAR LLC (b. 19 Jul 1991, Vladivostok, Russia), separately designated by the EU, UK and OFSI as the creator of the ‘Rybar’ military Telegram channel.

    Why the mix-up: Shares the surname ZVINCHUK and the same employer, RYBAR LLC, as the UK-listed Creative Director; a name-only or surname-only screen for ‘Zvinchuk’ at Rybar LLC surfaces both as separate ProofAML corpus records.

    How to tell them apart:
    • Different given name, patronymic and gender (male Mikhail Sergeevich vs. the listed female Valeriia Vladimirovna), and a recorded DOB of 19 Jul 1991 vs. none recorded for the listed individual
    • Listed in the role of Director General/founder of RYBAR LLC, not Creative Director
