In the Cherkasy region, the SBU exposed a businessman who appropriated and sold military ammunition intended for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to the investigation, a criminal scheme for the sale of military ammunition and equipment was organized by a former serviceman, a resident of Uman. These categories of goods were produced at Ukrainian enterprises exclusively for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and were “not for sale,” the SBU reports..

It is noted that the attacker illegally established connections with production shops. And thus, a batch of uniforms and protective equipment totaling over UAH 2 million instead of the army came to him.

According to the SBU, the man sold goods to volunteers, mobilized local residents, as well as through online platforms..

In particular, during the searches, law enforcement officers seized:.

over 500 military uniforms;

berets and other footwear;

buffs, balaclavas, hats;

camouflage and chemical protection suits;

a batch of plate carriers, etc..

“Investigative actions are underway to identify and bring to justice all those involved,” the SBU notes..

The Security Service of Ukraine prepares seized goods for transfer to the needs of the Ukrainian army.
