To identify the locations of the Defense Forces, the Russian secret service engaged its agent, a local handyman. Under the guise of performing auxiliary work, he walked around the community, where he secretly recorded the locations of Ukrainian defenders.

After the reconnaissance raids, the suspect returned home to "report" to the occupiers via an anonymous chat in the messenger. The SBU timely exposed the enemy's plans, detained the informant and took comprehensive measures to secure the positions of Ukrainian troops.

According to the investigation, the defendant was in direct contact with a staff member of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces (better known as the GRU). The SBU has already identified him.

Based on the collected evidence, the SBU investigators served the detainee a notice of suspicion under Part 2 Art. 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (high treason committed under martial law). The offender is in custody. He faces life imprisonment.
