In Chernihiv Oblast, the Security Service of Ukraine exposed a

traitor

who worked for the special services of Belarus.

This was reported in the press service of the SBU.

"The security service has gathered indisputable evidence of the guilt of another enemy agent who was collecting intelligence about the Defense Forces in the border regions of northern Ukraine. He turned out to be a resident of Chernihiv Oblast, who organized a channel for illegally transporting Ukrainian citizens of draft age abroad," the message says.

SBU employees detained the perpetrator as a result of a special operation at the end of 2022.

During the pre-trial investigation, new facts of criminal activity of the detainee were revealed.

"First of all, it was established that he carried out reconnaissance and subversive activities in the region for the benefit of the special services of Belarus. It was for them that the attacker collected information about the deployment and movement of units of the Defense Forces in the territory of the region," the report says.

The traitor paid special attention to the places of residence of the command staff of the Ukrainian troops.

He tried to pass the information he received to Russia through one of the evaders, whom he was going to smuggle across the border outside the checkpoints.

Based on the collected evidence, the investigators notified the Belarusian agent of suspicion under three articles: Art.

111 (treason);

Art.

263 (illegal handling of weapons, ammunition or explosives);

Part 3 of Art.

332 (organization of illegal transportation of persons across the state border of Ukraine) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

Law enforcement officers are trying to establish all the circumstances of the crimes and bring the culprits to justice.
