The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the National Police have detained two teenagers who carried out a bombing near a district police station in the Kyiv region under orders from Russian intelligence, which clearly now sees Ukrainian minors as a cheap tool for sabotage activities.
According to the SBU, the teenagers planted and detonated an improvised explosive device outside the Vyshhorod district police station on November 28. . The device was packed with bolts and screws for maximum impact, but fortunately caused no injuries.
To document the attack, the culprits even placed a mobile phone near the site to stream the explosion live.
The minors were recruited by GRU operatives through Telegram channels offering quick money with a Russian intelligence officer posing as a girl on social media, who promised financial rewards for sabotage acts.
Ukrainian law enforcement tracked the suspects and seized their mobile phones and other incriminating evidence during searches. The teens have been charged under Article 258, Part 2, of the Ukrainian Criminal Code for committing a terrorist act, which can put them behind bars for up to 12 years.
