The SBU detained a traitor who "leaked" to the Russians the positions of the Air Defense Forces covering Kharkiv

Military counter-intelligence of the Security Service detained another FSB agent in the Kharkiv region. He was preparing a series of rocket-bomb attacks on the combat positions of the Defense Forces, which are protecting the region from a new offensive of the Russian Federation.

According to the available data, the main targets of the enemy were the bases of radar stations and anti-aircraft missile systems.

In order to destroy Ukrainian objects by fire, the agent tried to establish and transfer their coordinates to the Russian special service.

To fulfill this task, he traveled around the suburbs of the regional center, where he secretly recorded the places of possible deployment of units of the Armed Forces.

However, the Security Service prevented the implementation of the enemy's plans and detained the intruder in his own apartment.

At the same time, additional measures were taken to secure the positions of the Armed Forces.

Criminal tools were seized from the detainee.

According to the investigation, a 30-year-old resident of one of the villages of the Kharkiv district turned out to be an enemy accomplice.

At the end of 2023, he was recruited into the intelligence apparatus of the enemy's special service and received the task, in addition to transmitting data about air defense facilities, to mobilize into the ranks of the Armed Forces.

But military counter-intelligence officers prevented an enemy agent from entering a unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the registration stage.

On the basis of the received evidence, the investigators of the Security Service informed the detainee of the suspicion under Part 2 of Art. 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason committed under martial law).

The perpetrator is in custody. He faces life imprisonment.

The special operation was conducted under the procedural guidance of the regional prosecutor's office.
