In Kyiv, a 59-year-old man was exposed and detained for illegally storing explosives and weapons. In addition, Stalin's Orthodox admirer turned out to be a collector of forbidden communist symbols.
The incident occurred in the Podolsky district of the capital. Investigators have determined that the suspect is in the Peacemaker database. The reason is the active participation in the information campaigns of the Kremlin against Ukraine.
