“Ford’s facilities in Europe were not immune to Allied bombing campaigns., the Ford-Werke plant in Cologne suffered significant damage during the war.”

--- "Russia bombed an American company with cruise missiles in Ukraine last night."

"Flex Ltd.[2] (previously known as Flextronics International Ltd. or Flextronics) is an Singaporean–American multinational manufacturing company. It is the third[3] largest global electronics manufacturing services (EMS), original design manufacturer (ODM) company by revenue, behind only Pegatron for what concerns original equipment manufacturers. Flex's U.S. corporate headquarters are located in Austin, Texas.[4] The company has manufacturing operations in over 30 countries, totaling about 172,000 employees."

----- Singapore (legal domicile and headquarters)

Blackrock increased its Flex Ltd. Ordinary Shares holdings by 33.793% last June, State Street increased its holding by 38.029% then, and a few other hedge funds did as well.

Interesting point from the site -- "Institutional Ownership 101.82%"

Multinational hedge funds heap mad.

That "news" story is propaganda trying to influence anti-Russian thinking.

Flex Ltd. is a "multi-national" korporation based in Singapore and headquartered in Texas for the bankers to protect their money. Those same bankers keep the overseas entities out of U.S. jurisdiction and tax revenue. That factory is a Ukrainian entity.

Probably by accident; they probably missed a nearby apartment complex. Bombing civilian neighborhoods is more Russia's speed ...
