Russia to freeze and Seize Financial assets of israeli-Backed International ‘Satanists’ – Google Search  google.com/search?q=Russia+t…
Based on recent news reports, Russia has added the “international Satanism movement” to a financial blacklist, allowing authorities to freeze the assets of alleged members. However, there is no credible evidence connecting this action to Israel or suggesting any explicit asset freeze targeting Israeli-backed groups. The user’s query combines information inaccurately. [1, 2, 3, 4]
The freezing of assets related to “Satanists”

Designation of “extremism”: In July 2025, Russia’s Supreme Court designated the “international Satanism movement” as an extremist organization, allowing the government to ban and freeze the assets of its alleged members.
Vague definition: Like the 2023 outlawing of the “international LGBT movement,” the designation of “Satanism” is vague and has reportedly been used to target a range of critics of the Russian government and the Russian Orthodox Church.
Political and religious rhetoric: Russian officials, including Patriarch Kirill of the Russian Orthodox Church, have framed the crackdown in political and religious terms, linking “Satanists” with radical nationalism and neo-Nazism. [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

The inaccuracy of the Israeli connection

No credible link established: News reports covering the ban on “international Satanism” do not mention any connection to Israel. The notion of an “Israeli-backed” Satanist movement appears to be a fabricated claim.
Russian claims against Chabad: In the past, some Russian officials have made unsubstantiated claims tying Chabad-Lubavitch, a Hasidic Jewish movement, to “Satanists.” In 2022, a senior Russian security official referred to Chabad as a “sect” and advocated for the “de-Satanization” of Ukraine, prompting condemnation from Russia’s chief rabbi. However, this is separate from the recent official ban.
Complex Israel-Russia relations: Though Moscow and Jerusalem have historically maintained cordial ties, the relationship has grown more complex. Russian rhetoric has at times been critical of Israeli actions, particularly in Gaza, and there have been diplomatic tensions. Despite this, Russia has not officially sanctioned Israel or taken action against “Israeli-backed” groups under the pretense of “Satanism.” [1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10]
