The Security Service of Ukraine has exposed a network of Russian agents who were preparing missile, bomb and drone strikes on six regions of Ukraine.
Preparing strikes on Ukraine: what is known about the detention of Russian agents
Law enforcement officers managed to simultaneously detain 9 Russian agents in Dnipro, Zaporozhye and Sumy, as well as in the Donetsk, Odessa and Kirovograd regions.
In order not to be exposed, the agents acted separately, but they were led by one FSB officer, whose identity has already been established.

Enemy agents were collecting coordinates necessary for the Russians to fire at the Ukrainian Armed Forces and critical facilities infrastructure.
The group of agents included, in particular, two female officials. One of them was an official of the Dnieper City Council, the other was head of the department in the Yuzhnensky city council in the Odessa region.
According to the FSB's instructions, the women reconnoitred the locations of air defense systems and key electrical substations to adjust enemy strikes on the territory of both regions.
The other two FSB agents identified the locations of fortified areas and heavy artillery firing positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near Pokrovsk and Chasovy Yar.
At the same time, their accomplice obtained information about the concentration sites of personnel and military equipment of the defenders of Kurakhovo in the Donetsk region.
In addition, among the accomplices of the FSB of the Russian Federation were two managers and a university student who recorded the movement of echelons of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the direction of the eastern front.
Another enemy henchman turned out to be a former employee of the disbanded police, who provided the occupiers with information about the consequences of the Russian attack on one of the hydroelectric power plants in Ukraine.
The attackers came to the attention of the Russian special services because they actively wrote comments in the chats of pro-Russian Telegram channels.
After the agents were recruited, they communicated with their curators through anonymous chat bots in one of the popular messengers.
