At the end of November, the SBU detained an FSB agent who was adjusting enemy strikes on the city. He turned out to be a former lecturer at a local university. To help the enemy bypass the Ukrainian air defense system, the detainee tried to identify the positions of anti-aircraft missile systems and mobile fire groups of the Defense Forces. To do this, he installed a hidden video camera in the attic of the high-rise building where he lived.

Earlier, the SBU detected another enemy agent. The agent of the Russian military intelligence, better known as "Gru", was spying for the enemy in ten regions of Ukraine: Donetsk, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Kherson, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Vinnytsia, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad and Chernivtsi regions. The suspect was a 22-year-old resident of Kherson region, who posed as a military man and moved around our country under this "legend".
