Details: The Security Service reported that the attacker provided his Russian handler with geo-referenced maps of the location of military facilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and of a defence manufacturing enterprise in the region.
The occupiers planned to use the information received to launch massive missile attacks on strategically important infrastructure in Ukraine.
The traitor is a resident of Korosten, who previously worked at one of the strategically important factories.
The "handler" from the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Russian Federation conducted a detailed briefing with his agent on the collection and conspiratorial channels used for intelligence transmission.
