In a statement to Al Jazeera, Bilax said that the company “has never traded Lego” and provides only logistical services for third parties.Lego said in a statement to Al Jazeera that it has “taken steps to increase visibility and control over any potential resale activity by retail partners which includes adding a clause to existing retailer contracts prohibiting existing retail partners from supplying to Russia”.

Businesses outside Russia willing to supply sanctioned goods directly to Russian customers are not difficult to find.Styleout Watches and Jewellery, a jewellery store in Dubai that sells Rolex and other premium watches, told an Al Jazeera journalist posing as a buyer that it was “more than happy” to deal with a Russian client and had “lots of them”.Rolex announced a boycott and ceased supplies to Russia after the Ukraine invasion and its watches are considered luxury goods under EU and US sanctions, although the UAE has not joined sanctions against Moscow.

When approached directly by Al Jazeera for comment, a representative said the company did "not need marketing or advertisement” and refused to discuss the matter further.Kiv.Kz, a wholesaler in Kazakhstan that sells household appliances, said it also had many clients from Russia, some of whom make bulk purchases of goods that are not officially available in the country due to sanctions.

“You can come and buy the whole truck,” a company representative told Al Jazeera in a phone conversation.

Customs data shows that products are being imported into Russia through unofficial channels on a large scale.In 2023, Cambridge astronomers found methane and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of the planet.

That was the first time that carbon-based molecules had been discovered in the atmosphere of any planet in the habitable zone of its sun – the distance from a sun where it’s neither too hot, nor too cold, and so possible for life to survive. The scientists said that a surface covered first by an ocean, and then a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, would explain the presence of carbon-based molecules. Simply put, it was possible that the planet could have water.What have the scientists found now?

Researchers have now found much harder evidence suggesting that the planet might not only have the conditions to host life – but could, at least in theory, be hosting life itself.To explore planets light years away from Earth, scientists wait for them to pass in front of their suns. They study the light from the suns as it streams through the atmospheres of these planets, searching for clues.
