@phoebe Following international sanctions, most Western insurance companies do not offer healthcare coverage in Russia. For this reason, it is necessary to use Russian companies such as [Attollo Assistance](https://russiable.com/ingosstrakh) or [Cherehapa](https://russiable.com/cherehapa), that allow you to buy insurance online and pay with foreign bank cards (Visa or MasterCard).

Meaning I can buy travel insurance from my home country if it covers Russia 🇷🇺
