Context
SBU detained former acting commander of one of the Special Operation Forces units Roman Chervinsky in the case of the rocket attack on Kanatove airfield.
As the SBU pointed out, according to the case file, the defendant, together with other persons, arbitrarily decided to conduct a so-called "special operation" - to take over an aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces. The Russian pilot allegedly agreed to the offer to go over to the side of Ukraine. As a result, according to the SBU, the enemy received information about the deployment of personnel of the Ukrainian Air Force and Ukrainian aircraft at the Kanatove airfield.
