The teen's new hack tracks at least 21 top Russian tycoons, the report says. "The private jets and helicopters of Roman Abramovich, owner of Chelsea Football Club, have been taking off and touching down in various destinations including Moscow, Baku, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and Dubai..." says the report, reading into the details posted by the teen hacker.

Some of the other Russian billionaires include steel magnate Alexander Abramov, whose jets and helicopters have been taking off and touching down in locales spread across the world including London, Seychelles, Antigua and Barbuda, and Abu Dhabi.

New Intel On War?

Interestingly, there seems to be a growing interest in these air routes as a lot of people have begun following the new Twitter page. Presently, Facebook and other media outlets have restricted access in Russia as Kremlin stated it spreads misinformation. In this scenario, getting information from Russia is pretty hard. But the teen's hack into the private jets has now provided new intel into the ongoing crisis.
