An employee of a security firm who passed information about the locations of Ukrainian troops in Kherson region to the Russian Federal Security Service was sentenced to 15 years in prison . UNN reports this with reference to the SBU. 

In the summer of 2023, the SBU detained an FSB agent red-handed while he was collecting intelligence on the deployment of the Defense Forces in the liberated Kherson region.

The detainee was an employee of a local security firm who came to the attention of the aggressor in the early 2000s when he was working as a taxi driver in Moscow.

After the outbreak of full-scale war, he was contacted remotely by an FSB officer and offered cooperation. Then the agent received a task: to collect information about Ukrainian defenders and pass it on to a curator from Russia.

The enemy was most interested in the possible firing positions of multiple launch rocket systems and cannon artillery of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, in particular foreign M777 howitzers

- the SBU said. 

In case of receiving intelligence, the agent had to first pass it on to the occupiers, and then arrive in the area of the potential target to adjust the fire in real time.

He used an anonymous chat in a messenger to communicate.

Based on the materials collected by the SBU investigators, the court found the man guilty under Part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (high treason committed under martial law).
