Source: Ukraine’s SBU
In a operation targeting Russian spies, Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has arrested a 36-year-old FSB agent in the Odessa region. The suspect, who resided in the Izmail district and often shared his pro-Russian sympathies in his comments on social media , had been recruited via Telegram and tasked with sabotaging Ukrainian Railways, Ukrzaliznytsia.
The agent, caught spying near one of the local conscription offices, was plotting to set fire to railway buildings and service vehicles, and disrupt relay cabinets. His mobile phone, seized by the SBU, contained evidence of his mission.
The FSB handlers had contacted the man through a Telegram encrypted messaging app, offering rewards for arsons in cryptocurrency payments.
Charged with treason, the agent now faces life imprisonment and asset confiscation. This arrest highlights ongoing efforts to combat sabotage in Ukraine.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
