I had my concerns when starting the transfer, but it worked like a charm in the end. Russia to Canada, not a huge amount - just trying to transfer some of the retirement pension stuck there due to the sanctions. Emil (ATM24 manager) was very helpful to work around a few related issues, and then it just worked.
