How Russians use Ukrainian children with the help of a game
Russians are trying to use Ukrainian children for their own purposes without their knowledge. So they developed a game application that helps the occupiers get information about the Ukrainian terrain. In the game, participants must look for so-called “boxes” with virtual prizes that can be exchanged for electronic money. When 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.
In the Kirovograd region, two teenagers have already been detained, who were photographing checkpoints, elevators and roads.
