They planned mass terrorist attack among military in Kyiv region: SSU exposes Russian agent group. VIDEO+PHOTOS
Russian special services were planning to organise a terrorist attack in Kyiv region. The SSU CI detained four members of the Russian agent network who were preparing to detonate explosives at the entrance to the building where one of the Defence Forces units is stationed.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the SSU press service.
According to the SSU, an underage agent of Russian special services, disguised in a Ukrainian military uniform, was to deliver an improvised explosive device in a tactical backpack to a sensitive facility. The enemy tracked his movements online and planned to detonate the explosive as soon as he entered the building.
At the same time, the agent who was to be blown up did not know that he was going to die. He thought that the IED would be detonated after he left the building.
"The SSU CI exposed the enemy's plans in advance and took a set of measures to prevent the terrorist attack. As a result, a minor terrorist and 3 other agents involved in the planning of this crime were detained. According to the investigation, with this terrorist attack, Russian special services wanted to undermine the socio-political situation in Ukraine and create the appearance of a conflict within the Defence Forces, when one "military" blows up others in protest," the statement said.
All four defendants acted separately from each other, but had a common curator from the Russian Federation.
One of the agents was a 16-year-old student from Kirovohrad region. He received the coordinates of the cache from the occupiers, where he took the explosives and military uniforms. Another member of the network is a 19-year-old young man who, according to preliminary data, transported the explosives and military uniforms from the "initial cache" to the cache where the 16-year-old agent picked them up.
The "initial cache" itself was arranged by 2 residents of Vinnytsia region. They made an explosive device according to the video instructions of a representative of the Russian special services and hid it in a designated place.
During the searches, the SSU seized mobile phones with evidence of their cooperation with the aggressor. The SSU also seized 1.5 kg of explosive mixture for the manufacture of an improvised munition from one of the agents.
Currently, all detainees have been served a notice of suspicion under two articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine:
- p. 2 Art. 111 (high treason committed under martial law);
- p. 2, Art. 263 (illegal handling of weapons, ammunition or explosives).
They are being held without bail. The Russian agents face life imprisonment with confiscation of property.
