One interesting item is the limited execution time of 60 minutes.

I'm not a cyber SME, but I wonder where 60 minutes sits on the continuum?

If on the low end, and assuming it was done so intentionally, does that mean this might have been meant as both an intentional attack(not ransomware) on Ukraine as well as a message NATO/EU/US unlikely to draw a direct cyber counterattack?

To me, if the 60 minute execution time is quite short, then it would seem to be designed to burn out like digital Ebola with a limited incubation period, instead of lingering like the Plague.
