Apple hasn't officially sold any hardware in Russia in the last 2+ years. Any Apple devices you can buy come from "parallel import" and are priced 1.5x compared to other countries.
As far as I know, the only way you can pay on the app store is from your prepaid balance at some carriers. Play store doesn't accept payments at all, it pops up a modal saying "payments in Russia are paused".
I can't understand what these sanctions are intended to achieve either. They just make us angrier because there's nothing we can do besides wait it out.

Get angrier, go out, kill the highest sitting official you can get your hands on, then be beaten, jailed, signed up to war where you will die and receive a posthumous medal?
