The Security Service of Ukraine SSU has reported that military counterintelligence detained a double Russian agent in Lviv Oblast who was simultaneously working for the Russian Federal Security Service FSB and Russian military intelligence.
Source SSU press service Details According to the case file, the Russian agent was an instructor at the Yavoriv training ground.
His task from Russian intelligence was to prepare terrorist attacks against the commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who, together with their units, were undergoing combat training at the local training centre of the defence forces.
It is documented that the agent received carte blanche from his handler to choose the method for attacking the Ukrainian military.
Thus, according to one of the scenarios, the agent had to make an improvised explosive device and then covertly plant it in the headquarters or a training building.
The agent was also developing an option to use his colleague, who was not aware of it and was supposed to bring camouflaged explosives to the commanders training location.
Another method of assassination considered by the agent was a Russian missile strike at the coordinates of the current concentration of Ukrainian defenders at the training ground.
It is noted that the SSU military counterintelligence exposed Russian intentions in advance, documented them and detained the agent when he was preparing proposals for the attack.
The investigation also revealed the agents contacts with the FSB handler.
On his instructions, the agent collected information on the number and specifics of units training at the Yavoriv training ground.
During the searches, the investigators seized three phones with SIM cards, which he used to hide his contacts with the Russians.
Based on the evidence collected, SSU investigators served him with a notice of suspicion of treason committed under martial law.
The offender is in custody without the right to be released on bail.
He faces life imprisonment with confiscation of property.
