Context
The SBU reported that the enemy began to use a new tactic: it arranges a remote detonation of an improvised explosive device, when the person installing it is still nearby.
In this way, the Russians actually eliminate the perpetrator "in the dark" in order to remove the witness to the crime and not pay him the promised money.
With the help of this scheme, Russian special services began to send people to carry out terrorist attacks in police stations, TCC.
For example, on March 23, an explosion occurred in the police building in Odesa region. Three law enforcement officers were injured. The explosion occurred after a woman with a package entered the department.
The Security Service of Ukraine qualified the explosion in the police building in Odesa region as an attempted terrorist attack.
Law enforcement officers established the identity of the deceased woman due to the explosion in the police station in Bilyaivka, Odesa region, who could have carried explosives in a package.
The spokeswoman of the National Police of Ukraine, Yuliia Hirdvilis, reported in March that Ukraine plans to strengthen security measures near police stations to counter terrorist attacks. In particular, patrols of territories will be strengthened, and hand-held metal detectors will be used.
The SBU warned parents that Russian special services are recruiting children in Ukraine to carry out terrorist attacks.
Recently, the National Police reported that they are observing a decrease in the involvement of children in recruitment by Russians. Almost 50 children contacted the National Police bodies, who reported that unknown persons from fictional accounts contacted them through messengers and social networks, who agitated them to commit arson of cars of servicemen, buildings of state bodies and local authorities, etc.
