How do I speak? in the SBU report, the man allegedly “worked” for representatives of the GRU of the General Staff of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
According to the report, he allegedly informed the curators about the number, deployment, weapons, movement of military equipment and units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine along the demarcation line.
The SBU also said that the “terrorist agent” used the identity of an active police officer, thanks to which he attracted local residents to collect information, supposedly in the interests of law enforcement officers.
Intelligence officers established that, on instructions from Russian intelligence services, he allegedly had to establish a channel for the supply of weapons and explosives from the LPR to organize a series of terrorist and sabotage acts in populated areas.
During the searches, an arsenal of weapons and a significant amount of cash in domestic and foreign currencies were also discovered on the pensioner. He allegedly kept a TT combat pistol, two Makarovs, an assault rifle, two carbines and seven shotguns, more than 1,3 thousand rounds of various calibers, fuses for grenades, as well as professional optical devices, a box of military smoke bombs, and the like.
