Security Service detains Russian informant who collected data on the consequences of the strike on Kramatorsk

Immediately after the air attack on the city, a Russian agent was tasked with collecting information about the number of people killed and injured due to the missile attack, the SBU press service said.

The enemy was particularly interested in information about the victim's affiliation with the Ukrainian Defence Forces.

The investigation found that the enemy informant also tracked the locations and movements of Ukrainian defenders on the territory of Kramatorsk. The Russian special services need this information to plan new missile strikes.

The SBU declassified the local resident, who was recruited this spring and detained him during the execution of another order.

Based on the collected evidence, SBU investigators informed the detainee of suspicion. Now he is in custody. The investigation is continuing to establish all the circumstances of the offence," the agency said.

This is not the first traitor detained in the region. Earlier, Socportal reported that an occupier's informant who turned his home into an "observation point" for the Ukrainian armed forces in Donetsk Region was reported to be suspected.
