The counterintelligence unit of the Security Service of Ukraine has identified and arrested two Russian agents operating in the Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions. According to the collected evidence, the suspects were gathering coordinates for missile, drone, and artillery strikes against our forces. In Dnipropetrovsk, a 20-year-old woman from the Synelnykove district was apprehended for monitoring transit routes of military convoys.
She set up a hidden camera near the railway tracks, which was accessible to Russian intelligence agents. In Donetsk, another informant was exposed for directing precision airstrikes and artillery fire on Ukrainian defenders in Sloviansk. The main targets included fortified positions and fuel and ammunition depots. The collected data was sent to a contact through a messenger, who is a militant associated with Russian groups and collaborates with Russian military intelligence. The SBU documented the criminal acts of both informants and seized their smartphones used for communication with the enemy. Investigators informed them of suspicion under Article 114-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which carries a penalty of up to 8 years in prison. Operations were conducted in Dnipropetrovsk, Ternopil, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions under the supervision of regional prosecutors.
