SBU detains informer who collected data on defense of South Ukraine NPP
The SBU said this in a post on the Telegram messaging app, according to Ukrinform.
"SBU employees detained the culprit while he was taking photos of a critical infrastructure object. A mobile phone with evidence of criminal activity was seized from the detainee," the report reads.
According to the investigation, the accomplice of the aggressor turned out to be a resident of Yuzhnoukrainsk, whom the Russian intelligence agency remotely involved in secret cooperation in February this year.
He came into the field of view of the enemy because of his pro-Kremlin posts in a Russian Telegram channel.
The aggressor needed classified information to prepare targeted missile strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities.
For completing tasks, the informer received money from his Russian "curators." It was documented that the culprit had received an "advance payment" of UAH 2,000 from the aggressor.
On the basis of the collected evidence, SBU investigators served the man with a suspicion notice.
Earlier reports said that in April the SBU's counter-intelligence unit detained an agent who informed the Russians about the location and mode of operation of Ukrainian military aircraft in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
