The Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine has added Viber as a new channel for receiving information on the movement of Russian troops. The bot has secure technology and guarantees the safety of informants.

From now on, you can report the movement of the occupiers' equipment and the Russian military to the Main Intelligence Directorate using the Viber application. This was reported by the DIU press service, UNN reports.

"Communication with the GUR is now also available to Viber users. For more than two years of operation of the main intelligence bot, Ukraine has received thousands of appeals from concerned citizens in the occupation and on the territory of Russia, which helped destroy tons of enemy equipment and Russian occupiers," the DIU said.

It is noted that the Viber version has implemented technologies that guarantee the safety of users.

"Our priority is the safety of informants. Before the public launch of the bot, we thoroughly tested it and made sure that enemy intelligence services will not be able to access either the correspondence or the data of the user who contacts the DIU," said DIU representative Andriy Yusov.

He added that Ukrainian intelligence continues to successfully use chatbots to gather information.

"We are interested in information about the movements of the invaders' military leadership, military and technical developments of the aggressor state of Russia. Sometimes even a tiny bit of information can be decisive," Yusov added.

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine warned about at least 8 fake chatbots imitating the official bot of the Ukrainian intelligence service. Ukrainians are urged to be careful and use only official channels of communication with the DIU.
