Soldiers of the special forces "Angels" evacuated the family of a Ukrainian Navy officer from the temporarily occupied Crimea under the nose of the FSB.
This was reported by the spokesman of the Ukrainian Navy Dmytro Pletenchuk.
He said that the special intelligence unit "Angels" carried out a complex operation and evacuated the family of an officer of the Navy from the temporarily occupied Crimea on the instructions of the Commander of the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksiy Neizhpapa.
It is noted that the family had to leave the peninsula because of persecution by the FSB. Thus, on September 18, the entire family of four - the officer's parents, sister and minor niece - was detained by the occupiers. They were illegally detained for three days, psychologically pressured and threatened with torture. In this way, the occupiers planned to persuade the Ukrainian officer to cooperate. On September 20, his family was temporarily released on the condition that the officer would contact the FSB within the next five days. Otherwise, his family was threatened with years of imprisonment.

The serviceman reported the situation directly to the Commander of the Ukrainian Navy. It was decided to involve the Navy's special intelligence unit "Angels", which has conducted more than a dozen successful evacuations, in the planning and conduct of the special operation. The operation was planned in complete secrecy in a short time and successfully implemented. The family was evacuated virtually from under the occupiers' noses. The command of the Ukrainian Navy expressed its sincere gratitude to the Anti-Crisis Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine for its assistance during the rescue operation.
