The Security Service of Ukraine detained an enemy agent in the Odesa region. The traitor passed data to the Russian Federation about places where the toxic substances were.

How the Russian agent worked

The enemy agent identified and transmitted the coordinates of places where toxic substances are stored, in particular warehouses and depots with pesticides. In this way, the traitor was preparing an ecological terrorist attack within the Odesa region and destabilising the internal situation.

According to the indicated geolocations, the occupiers planned to carry out air attacks using missile weapons and kamikaze drones of the Shahed type.

For a cover story, the collaborator started working as a taxi driver and recorded the locations of "necessary" objects under the guise of transporting passengers. He was detained during another "reconnaissance".

What is the punishment?

The man was informed of suspicion under Chapter 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason committed under martial law). He faces life imprisonment with confiscation of property. The investigation is ongoing.

A Russian agent who spied on critical infrastructure was sentenced in Izmail. The traitor transmitted data about movements in the city's river port to Russian military intelligence.
