The SSU Counterintelligence has detained another enemy agent in Dnipropetrovsk oblast. He adjusted combined attacks by russian forces on Kryvyi Rih and the neighboring Kirovohrad region.

According to the investigation, the occupiers were preparing to strike energy facilities, and in order to evade Ukrainian air defense the agent had to identify its locations.

The enemy accomplice turned out to be a 39-year-old resident of Kryvyi Rih district who was looking for ways to contact russian special services through Telegram channels.

He was subsequently recruited by an FSB military counterintelligence officer.

On russia’s orders, the asset began to travel around the area by bus, trying to locate AFU radar stations and anti-aircraft missile systems.

During the air raid alerts, the perpetrator recorded the routes of mobile air defense groups that he observed.

The traitor sent the collected data to his handler in the form of photos of Ukrainian installations with their coordinates on Google Maps.

The SSU detained the spotter at his home.

A smartphone, on which he stored intelligence and communicated with his FSB handler, was seized from him during searches.

SSU investigators notified the detainee of suspicion under Article 111.2 of the CCU (high treason committed under martial law).

The suspect is in custody without bail and faces life imprisonment with confiscation of property.

The operation was carried out by the SSU Office in Donetsk and Luhansk regions under the procedural supervision of Donetsk Region Prosecutor’s Office.
