The Russian currency is now at its lowest levels since the start of the Russian invasion.

On Saturday morning, the foreign exchange rates of Russian banks rose significantly: the dollar was raised to 90 rubles, and the euro to 100 rubles. Sberbank increased the exchange rate of the dollar against the ruble by 10 percent, according to reports financial times.

Kommersant reported that major Russian banks have slightly cut foreign exchange rates against the ruble after a sharp increase in the morning. The initial increase occurred after the forces of the mercenary commander Yevgeny Prigozhin began combat operations against some units of the Russian army.

In order to dispel panic, the Russian news agency TASSSZ reported in a summary that Russian banks are operating as usual, and offices are open according to the weekend schedule. Necessary matters can be dealt with without interruption via call centers and internet banks, MTI sums up the report.
