The Security Service of Ukraine detained an enemy informant who collected intelligence information about the defense of the Dnipropetrovsk region. The traitor turned out to be a resident of the Sinelnikovsky district. He publicly supported the Russian armed aggression against Ukraine, the SBU reported..

“The attacker, on his own initiative, published in the pro-Russian public photo and video materials of the locations of the Defense Forces in the region. Thus, he came to the attention of the Russian special services, who came to him because of the pro-Kremlin Internet resources controlled by the administrators..

The enemy offered cooperation for money to the traitor through the messenger. The traitor received a reward for criminal actions on a bank card.

“According to the instructions of the enemy, he went out to the area and secretly photographed the movement of units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the region. First of all, the aggressor was interested in information about the possible movement of convoys with foreign-made military equipment,” the SBU added..

The invaders planned to use the intelligence collected by the traitor in order to prepare and carry out targeted missile strikes on Ukrainian targets.. SBU counterintelligence detained the attacker when he tried to transfer classified data to the occupiers.

“He spread his pro-Kremlin views on his account in popular social networks. During a search at the place of residence of the defendant, law enforcement officers found a computer and a mobile phone red-handed,” the SBU added..

The court has already sent the traitor under arrest. He faces up to 12 years in prison.
