The SSU has detained another russian informant in Kharkiv who was coordinating enemy attacks on the city.

According to the investigation, the guidance of enemy shelling was carried out by a local shop assistant recruited by the ruscists. She came to the attention of russian intelligence services after posting pro-kremlin comments in Telegram chats.

Following her recruitment, the suspect walked the streets of the regional centre to identify backup command posts of the Defence Forces, which the enemy was targeting with a series of airstrikes.

To accomplish the enemy's task, the perpetrator recorded the facades of buildings on her phone camera near which she noticed concentrations of Ukrainian military personnel and equipment.

SSU cyber specialists took proactive measures uncovering the informant's contacts with the ruscists in advance, documenting her reconnaissance missions, and detaining her at her home.

According to findings, the suspect's next assignment was to participate in the preparation of terrorist attacks against Ukrainian servicemen who were on rotation after returning from the frontline.

In addition, the informant tracked parking locations of Armed Forces vehicles, photographed these locations, and sent the images to her handler in russia.

During searches at the detainee's home, law enforcement officers discovered a smartphone containing files of military facilities and a messenger chat where she communicated with the enemy.

SSU investigators have served her a notice of suspicion under Article 114-2.2 of the CCU (unauthorized dissemination of information regarding the movement or deployment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine or other military formations established in accordance with the laws of Ukraine, committed under martial law).

The perpetrator is currently in custody and faces up to 8 years in prison. The issue of additionally qualifying her crimes as high treason is being resolved.

The operation is carried out by the SSU Office in Kharkiv region under the procedural supervision of the regional prosecutor's office.
