The Security Service of Ukraine said on Tuesday it has dismantled a major Russian spy network operating across five regions of Ukraine. The group was gathering intelligence on the locations of F-16 fighter jets and other key defense assets.
The network was managed by a resident of the Dnipropetrovsk region who used falsified documents posing as a “volunteer” and “anti-corruption activist”.
The man found accomplices in Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Sumy, Mykolaiv, and Odesa regions. Some members of the group turned out to be servicemen who deserted from the Ukrainian army.
Recruited by Russian intelligence services, they snooped on air defense positions, military airfields, and facilities involved in electronic warfare production.
During raids, the SBU found incriminating evidence and charged the suspects with treason and unauthorized dissemination of military information. If convicted, they face sentences ranging from eight years to life imprisonment, along with the confiscation of their property.
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.
