0? I understood that the plaintiff is what'sapp. Not sure if it's for damages or punitive.

The victims are probably not citizens of the US so they would be outside of this jurisdiction. That's between those two countries. The reason it's going to the US court is because it occured in US cyberturf (Meta's servers)
