Quote: "During the counter-sabotage sweep of the frontline areas of Donetsk Oblast, the Security Service of Ukraine detained two enemy [Russian - ed.] informants who were correcting missile strikes on the territory of the region."

Details: The men transmitted data on the deployment of personnel and equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including HIMARS, to the Russian occupiers. And also collected information about the geolocation and functioning of critical infrastructure. In particular, on their "tip-off", the invaders fired at the water intake system in the city of Selydove.

The culprits transmitted information through an official of the "people's militia", sending him pictures with notes about objects on digital maps. Both were notified of suspicion. The preventive measure is detention.
