The SBU Successfully Apprehended a Traitor Spying for the Enemy
The counter-intelligence of the Security Service foiled a new attempt by the Russian Federation to obtain up-to-date information about the Defense Forces in Donetsk region.
As a result of a special operation, an agent of the Russian military intelligence was detained in Slovyansk, who was collecting intelligence on the redeployment of units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the direction of the front line.
First of all, she tried to identify pontoon-bridge complexes and locations where they are used to transport heavy weapons across local rivers.
The occupiers needed such information to plan combat ground operations and prepare airstrikes on the concentration points of personnel and military equipment of the Armed Forces.
The Security Service learned about such plans of the aggressor at the initial stage of the intelligence activity of the Russian agent. This made it possible to secure the positions of Ukrainian troops in a timely manner.
Also, in the course of documenting the figure, it became known about her curator from the military intelligence of the Russian Federation.
At the final stage of the special operation, the enemy agent was detained in her own apartment.
Mobile phones were seized from the detainee, on which she regularly changed accounts for conspiratorial communication with the occupiers.
According to the investigation, the traitor turned out to be a 25-year-old local resident, an ideological supporter of racism.
She was recruited when Yampil village was under Russian occupation
For a long time, she was in a "sleeping" mode, but in the spring of this year, the agent was "activated" for reconnaissance and subversive activities in the frontline region.
In order to carry out enemy tasks, she went around the area, and also tried to "darkly" ask her acquaintances for the information she needed.
She faces life in prison.
