In addition to geolocations, they were to make text and photo reports indicating and describing what kind of equipment was located at each of the facilities.

To fulfill this instruction, the agents planned to travel by shuttle buses to 5 regions of Ukraine. Near each of the potential sites, they planned to rent accommodation to spy and film the “target” for several days.

SBU officers exposed both agents at the initial stage of enemy intelligence activities, documented their visits to several regions and detained them while photographing F-16 fighter jets.

The SBU took comprehensive measures to ensure the security of the Defense Forces' locations.

During their detention, the traitors' cell phones with evidence of working for the enemy were seized.

The attackers are in custody without the right to bail. They face life imprisonment with confiscation of property.
