The eastward advance was monitored by a citizen using Apple’s “find my” feature

But what happened? The Russian soldiers conducted various raids during their passage. They went into shops and houses and took everything they could find, especially technology. Vitaly Sements’ house was among the looted houses in Hostomel, a town between Bucha and Kyiv. And from here they took the AirPods, Apple’s headphones, from Vitaly.

Apple has a device discovery system that allows owners to locate the instruments through the “Find my” app (Italian for “where is”). And Vitaly activated the app on her headphones and discovered that they were … in Russia, precisely in Bolgorod. And on his Instagram profile, Vitaly documented his discovery of becoming a new social hero for his fellow Ukrainians.
