The SBU took out of Transnistria and detained an FSB special agent who wanted to recruit an employee of the Security Service
The counter-intelligence of the Security Service conducted a multi-stage special operation, as a result of which they removed an FSB agent from the territory of unrecognized Transnistria and detained an FSB agent in Odesa. He received a hostile task - to create his own agent network in the south of Ukraine.
For this purpose, the suspect tried to remotely recruit residents of Odesa region, including local law enforcement officers.
In order to bring a Russian agent to the territory of our country, SBU counter-intelligence officers introduced an active employee of the Security Service into his field of vision and created conditions for her "agreement" to cooperate with the enemy.
According to the scenario of the Ukrainian special service, the attacker came to Odesa to personally recruit the "candidate".
The operative combination of the SBU made it possible to document the criminal actions of the Russian agent in stages and detain him "red handed".
According to the investigation, the enemy accomplice turned out to be a citizen of Ukraine who left for Moldova in the early 1990s, where he participated in the war on the side of the militants of the so-called PMR.
Later, he became a sniper in the Russian-controlled unit of the "internal troops of Transnistria". Then the person involved received a "promotion" and was appointed commander of the group of the 17th detachment of special forces "Edelweiss" of the Ministry of the Interior of Russia.
In 2014, he arrived in Odesa to commit mass riots in favor of the Russian Federation, for which he was declared wanted by Ukrainian law enforcement officers.
To avoid justice, the person involved fled to the fake "PMR", where in 2019 he was recruited by representatives of the local "MDB" to perform FSB tasks.
Then he received the operational nickname "Scythian", underwent training, and already in 2023 began to perform enemy tasks.
Among the priority areas of his reconnaissance and subversive activities was the collection of intelligence on the deployment and movement of the Defense Forces in the front-line areas in the south of Ukraine.
The investigators of the Security Service informed "Skyf" about the suspicion under Part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The perpetrator faces life imprisonment.
