The SSU Military Counterintelligence has detained another enemy agent who was spying on the Ukrainian Armed Forces combat aviation in western Ukraine.

According to the investigation, the perpetrator is a 20-year-old resident of Khmelnytskyi region who came to russia’s attention while looking for ‘easy money’ on Telegram.

His main task was to track the locations, number and flight schedules of Ukrainian combat aircraft.

To do this, the agent installed hidden mini-cameras near the air bases with online broadcasting and remote access for russian special services.

In this way, the occupiers hoped to record presence and types of aircraft at the airfields in real time.

The Security Service caught the traitor red-handed as he was setting up photo traps near one of the military installations.

A smartphone with evidence of working for the enemy was seized from the suspect during the search.

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 and faces life imprisonment with confiscation of property.

The operation was carried out under the procedural supervision of the regional Prosecutor’s Office.
