- The media reported on the order of the head of the Pentagon to stop cyber operations against Russia


Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth ordered cyber command The United States to stop all activities against Russia, including offensive digital operations. This was reported on February 28 by the The Record with reference to sources.
"Hegseth gave instructions to the head of the cyber command, General Timothy Ho, who then informed the outgoing director of operations of the organization, Major General of the Marine Corps, Ryan Heritage, of the new instructions," the publication reports their words.
The duration of the suspension is not specified. However, it is noted that it does not apply to the National Security Agency and its work on electronic intelligence. The publication stressed that the order is evidence of Washington's efforts to normalize relations with Moscow.
On February 19, NBC News announced Hegset's plans dismiss generals whose views differ from the position of the American leader Donald Trump. According to officials, those on the list expressed opinions that the US president's allies considered politically inappropriate or were closely associated with former Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.
