Ukraine’s security service has revealed that an undercover Ukrainian agent infiltrated Russia’s elite special forces, uncovering evidence of covert plots and war crimes.
The agent was planted within Russia’s Spetsnaz special operations forces, according to Artem Dekhtiarenko, spokesman for Ukraine’s SBU security service. Speaking at a press briefing Wednesday, Dekhtiarenko said the mole provided critical intelligence on the inner workings of the notorious Russian saboteurs.
“Thanks to him, the SBU obtained information about the participants, structure, and features of this organization,” Dekhtiarenko stated. “The agent helped document many crimes of the Russian special forces.”
The revelations come after Ukrainian investigators disclosed that deadly ammunition depot explosions in Ukraine’s Svatove in 2015 were the work of Russian Spetsnaz operatives.
