Russian security forces bust Ukrainian spy ring.

On June 13, RT, citing a statement from the FSB, reported that the agency had arrested several Russian citizens for cooperating with the Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate on charges of disclosing state secrets and conspiracy to commit sabotage. Most of these individuals had previously worked for the Russian defense industry.

According to the FSB, these individuals also provided Ukrainian intelligence with numerous documents and military materials used in the production of weapons currently in use by the Russian Air Force.

The Ukrainian spy group even prepared to carry out sabotage attacks targeting railway lines in the Kursk and Belgorod regions bordering Ukraine. These are all infrastructure facilities used by the Russian military for special operations.

During the dismantling of the Ukrainian spy ring, the FSB seized more than 4 kg of explosives, 4 detonators, design documents, and several military-related items, along with over $150,000 in cash from the suspects.

The FSB has yet to publicly disclose the identities or scale of the Ukrainian espionage ring.

In recent months, Russian security agencies have stepped up efforts to thwart Ukrainian espionage activities in the country, most of which involve gathering information about Moscow's military facilities or organizing sabotage attacks.

Late last year, the FSB claimed to have foiled a Ukrainian plot to blow up a Russian gas pipeline supplying Turkey that runs beneath the Black Sea. More recently, in May, the agency announced it had thwarted a Ukrainian sabotage group planning to target power lines leading to two nuclear power plants in Russia in order to “shut down the nuclear reactors.”
