About it reports the Communications Department of the Donetsk Region Police.
“Over three months, as a result of the work of stop control points, the police documented 1138 offenses. Not a day has passed this year without the seizure of weapons, ammunition or explosives... It was thanks to online database checks that 198 people were detained who at various times were involved in illegal armed groups or were members of the “authorities” of the fake republic,” it said in the message.
It was noted that the detainees were going to receive Ukrainian payments, and in return they would receive criminal liability.
“96 different attempts to smuggle ammunition were identified, in particular, under the hood, in the interior trim, even in ordinary mittens,” the Ukrainian police boasted.
In particular, according to Ukrainian police, the most egregious incident occurred at a checkpoint in Artemovsk (renamed Bakhmut-Red by Ukraine), where they detained a “terrorist” grandmother who took with her on the road to Ukrainian territory a kilogram of plastic and 7 grenades hidden in mittens.
