Since the beginning of the full-scale war, law enforcement officers have exposed about 100 sabotage and reconnaissance groups in Ukraine and detained more than 1,600 people presumed to be involved in conducting sabotage.

Details: Yenin noted that Ukrainian citizens sometimes leak information to the Russian occupying forces for up to 10,000 hryvnias [about US$300].
Quote: "Our citizens enter into cooperation with the Russians for some 5,000-10,000 hryvnias. In exchange for this money, they provide them with information about the location of military facilities and checkpoints, and information about the sites of missile strikes.
Treason for $300 is almost like 30 pieces of silver. And the prospect of spending the next 15 years in a small cell."
More details: At the same time, Yenin noted that the operations carried out by the police and the Security Service of Ukraine to expose these people are pretty effective.
