The SBU detained an FSB agent who bought an IR camera to direct Russian drones to fuel depots in Dnipro.
Counterintelligence of the security service revealed another policeman in Dnipro. The attacker carried out the FSB mission to damage fuel and energy infrastructure facilities and logistics centers with the help of IR cameras and visual surveillance.
It was established that the agent guided Russian jet drones to refuel warehouses and maintenance and repair facilities of military equipment according to the instructions of the Russian authorities.
It was documented how the suspect used her car to drive around the regional center and the surrounding area in order to identify and broadcast the coordinates of fuel and lubricant storage facilities to the enemy.
Also, during reconnaissance sorties, she hoped to discover the location of the armed forces' technical support facilities. To this end, the woman recorded on her smartphone the technological facilities near which cars of Ukrainian soldiers were found.
Later, the intruder acquired an IR camera, which she had to install in her own car for the convenience of recording the video and transmitting the received data to the enemy.
SBU employees uncovered the agent early and detained her at her residence. During the search, a "video trap", a tablet and four smartphones were found in her possession, which she used for video recording and communication with the FSB.
As the investigation revealed, the facility turned out to be a local resident who came to the knowledge of the enemy through her mother, who lives in the temporarily occupied part of the Donetsk region.
After being recruited, the agent worked with the treasurer from the FSB's closed channel with the Russian special service agent through an anonymous messenger chat.
On the basis of the evidence collected, SBU investigators notified the detainee of suspicion under Part 2 of Art. 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason committed under martial law).
The perpetrator is in custody. She faces life imprisonment with confiscation of property.
