The General Staff of the Armed Forces noted that on December 17, during a planned inspection of the premises, equipment for removing information was discovered in one of the deployment locations.

Eavesdropping devices were installed in the offices designated for the work of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and employees of the Apparatus for ensuring his activities.

The Security Service of Ukraine was notified to establish the circumstances, consequences and involved persons.

Valery Zaluzhnyi, in a comment on RBC-Ukraine, confirmed that listening devices were found in the room where he was supposed to work today.

According to him, the room where the device was found is not his office and has not been used for quite some time.

He also noted that the "listeners" most likely did not receive important information.
