亞歷山大·古里維奇（Alexander Gurevich

A dual citizen of Israel and Russia has been arrested at Ben-Gurion Airport as he allegedly attempted to flee to Russia using a passport with a different last name.

以色列和俄羅斯的雙重公民在本古里安機場被捕，據稱他試圖使用帶有不同姓氏的護照逃往俄羅斯。

The suspect, identified as 47-year-old Alexander Gurevich, is now facing extradition to the United States, where he is accused of involvement in a major cryptocurrency hack.

犯罪嫌疑人被確定為47歲的亞歷山大·古里維奇（Alexander Gurevich），現在正面臨著引渡到美國的引渡，在那裡他被指控參與了主要的加密貨幣黑客攻擊。

Gurevich’s arrest marks the first public identification of the primary suspect behind a 2022 breach that nearly crippled a California-based blockchain firm.

古里維奇（Gurevich）的逮捕標誌著2022年違規行為的首次公開識別，幾乎削弱了一家加利福尼亞的區塊鏈公司。

The arrest comes after a formal extradition request was filed by U.S. authorities.

逮捕是在美國當局提出正式引渡請求之後進行的。

According to the request, Gurevich allegedly carried out the hack with the aim of extorting cryptocurrency from the company and laundering the stolen funds.

根據該要求，據稱Gurevich進行了黑客攻擊，目的是從公司勒索加密貨幣並洗錢被盜資金。

Over the course of several months, the hacker, who is said to be Gurevich, threatened to shut down the company’s blockchain network unless they paid a ransom of $60 million in cryptocurrency.

在幾個月的時間裡，據說是古里維奇的黑客，他們威脅要關閉公司的區塊鍊網絡，除非他們支付了6000萬美元的加密貨幣贖金。

The hacker also allegedly drained nearly $350 million from the company’s cryptocurrency wallets and attempted to launder the stolen funds through a complex network of cryptocurrency exchanges and privacy coins.

據稱，這名黑客還從該公司的加密貨幣錢包中耗盡了近3.5億美元，並試圖通過複雜的加密貨幣交易所和隱私硬幣網絡來洗錢。

These actions posed a severe threat to the targeted company’s operations and to broader investor confidence, officials said.

官員說，這些行動對目標公司的運營構成了嚴重威脅，並對投資者更大的信心構成了威脅。

The case is still ongoing, and authorities in both countries are working together to process the case and uncover more details about the scope of the alleged attack.

該案仍在進行中，兩國的當局正在共同努力處理此案，並發現有關所謂襲擊範圍的更多細節。
