Russian security breaks up Ukrainian spy ring

On June 13, RT quoted the FSB's announcement that the agency had arrested a number of Russian citizens cooperating with the Ukrainian General Intelligence Service on charges of revealing state secrets and plotting sabotage attacks. Most of these subjects used to work for the Russian defense industry.

According to the FSB, these subjects provided Ukrainian intelligence with many documents and military products used to produce weapons being used by the Russian air force.

The Ukrainian spy group even prepared sabotage attacks on railways in the Kursk and Belgorod regions bordering Ukraine, which are infrastructure used by the Russian military for special military operations.

During the dismantling of the Ukrainian spy ring, the FSB seized more than 4 kg of explosives, 4 detonators, design documents and a number of military-related items, as well as more than 150,000 USD in cash from the suspects.

The FSB has yet to publicly disclose the identity or scale of the Ukrainian spy ring.

In recent months, Russian security services 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 to Türkiye that runs under the Black Sea. More recently, in May, the agency claimed to have foiled a Ukrainian sabotage group that was planning to target power lines leading to two nuclear power plants in Russia in order to “put the reactors out of action.”
