You realize that crowdstrike retracted the report? They were called out by some kids on the internet and got some media coverage, Feinstein commented the next morning, regretfully admitting crowdstrike, the only evidence they had, had to retract, here is the 'hard evidence.'

You're talking about a different report, about the presence of X-agent in Ukrainian artillery. And it wasn't a full retraction, it was just a correction, which did not undermine the key points. https://www.crowdstrike.com/wp-content/brochures/FancyBearTr... The correction had to do with mis-representing the number of troops killed, it did not dispute that an X-agent variant was found on the artillery.
