Russian security services detained a mole at Motor Sich plant

The SBU has detained an FSB mole and his brother who were preparing a missile attack on the Motor Sich plant. This was reported by the SBU on 11 June.

According to the SBU counterintelligence service, the enemy was interested in the coordinates of Motor Sich and other machine-building plants that produce components for the AFU aircraft.

First of all, the aggressor was interested in the locations of design bureaus and production facilities, which were relocated after the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation and where aircraft engines for attack helicopters and UAVs are manufactured.

In order to obtain intelligence, the Russian secret service involved its agent - a machine tool mechanic of one of the industrial facilities of "Motor Sichi".

On the instructions of the occupants, the mole went round the territory of the enterprise and recorded the location of production workshops and warehouses with finished products.

The attacker then marked the "necessary" locations on Google maps for their further transfer to the FSB.

The agent was preparing to send the corresponding report to the aggressor through his brother, an unemployed local resident, who was in direct contact with a staff member of the Russian security service.

The occupants planned to carry out targeted missile strikes on the defence facilities of Zaporizhzhya

SBU counterintelligence officers exposed both traitors and detained them red-handed when they were preparing a communication session to transmit intelligence to the FSB.

Both figures came to the attention of the Russian secret service through their father, an ideological supporter of the Kremlin who lives in the temporarily occupied part of the region.

After remote recruitment, the agents were brought into direct contact with an FSB representative. Anonymous chats in a popular messenger were used for communication.

The SBU investigators informed both detainees of suspicion under part 2 of article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason committed under martial law).

The attackers are in custody. They face life imprisonment.

Earlier Socialportal reported that the SBU detained an agent of the FSB, who was preparing terrorist attacks against soldiers of the TCC in Zaporizhzhya.
