U.S. State Department Closing Two Consulates In Russia

Following the closure of the U.S. Consulates in Vladivostok and Yekaterinburg, the U.S. Embassy in Moscow will be the only American diplomatic outpost in Russia.

The announcement follows the revelation of a massive cyberattack against numerous government agencies as well as a number of private companies. Russian intelligence is widely believed responsible.
