Cash is making a comeback in Russia as digital payments grow more unreliable with frequent mobile internet outages the Kremlin says are aimed at countering the threat of Ukrainian drone attacks.

由於行動網路頻繁中斷，數位支付可靠性下降，現金正重新在俄羅斯受到青睞。克里姆林宮表示，這些斷網措施是為了反制烏克蘭無人機攻擊威脅。

The amount of cash in circulation jumped by about 600 billion rubles ($8 billion) in April. That’s the biggest monthly increase — excluding annual spikes in December — since September 2022, when President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilization for the war in Ukraine, according to Bloomberg calculations based on data from the Bank of Russia.

根據彭博依據俄羅斯央行資料的估算，4月流通現金增加約6000億盧布（約80億美元）。若排除每年12月的高峰，這是自2022年9月以來的最大單月增幅；當時總統弗拉迪米爾．普廷宣布為烏克蘭戰爭進行部分動員。

The renewed embrace of cash underscores the tradeoff between security and economic efficiency, as drone defense measures revive habits many assumed were becoming obsolete.

俄國民眾如今再度擁抱現金，凸顯出安全與經濟效率之間的取捨；隨著無人機防禦措施加強，許多原本被認為已過時的習慣再度回歸。
