Russians use Ukrainian children
- Russians have developed a game application that helps them get information about the Ukrainian area. In the game, participants must look for “boxes” with virtual prizes that can be exchanged for electronic money.
- While passing the route, children must photograph the area and objects of military and critical infrastructure. An IT company controlled by Russian special services has access to this application. It is registered in one of the European countries and is engaged in the distribution of interactive platforms.
- Two teenagers have already been detained in the Kirovograd region, who were photographing roadblocks, elevators and roads.
