AddendumAddendum

Investigators found out that the agent was tasked by the Russian Federal Security Service to gather information about the temporary location of the training center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Kharkiv region, the geolocation of fortifications and firing positions of Ukrainian troops defending the regional center.

To gather intelligence, he moved around the city and the region under the guise of a taxi driver, and “in the dark” asked passengers for information he needed.

Communication with the enemy special service took place through its “liaison”. It turned out to be another traitor, Oleksandr Slisarenko, who was one of the heads of the local occupation administration of the Russian Federation after the capture of Kupyansk.

The agent used an anonymous chat in a popular messenger to communicate with him.
