Is it feasible to resolve this?

@M Sorry, I forgot about this market. Wikipedia claims it has unknown origin. Do you agree it's N/A?

@Yev Yeah. I suspect that it is possible that neither Russia nor Ukraine leadership is really sure, and maybe even soldiers who fatfingered coordinates are not aware.

And given how many other more important things happened it is unlikely that we know any time soon.

Alternative is to keep it unresolved just in chance that we will learn something and let loan feature to handle giving back frozen funds
