The Security Service of Ukraine has detained three more Russian accomplices who collaborated with the occupiers in Kherson region.

This was reported in the press service of the agency.

The report says that one of them was a resident of the regional center, an agent of Russian military intelligence (better known as GRU) Yulia Hryn, who adjusted enemy fire on the Defense Forces. To do this, the suspect traveled around the community on a scooter and tried to identify the locations of Ukrainian troops involved in combat operations at the front. The enemy's priority targets were camouflaged headquarters, firing positions and strongholds ofthe Armed Forces units. The agent sent the obtained information to the Russian agent via messenger in the form of screenshots with markings of military facilities on Google maps. In the course of the special operation, the SBU detained the traitor in her own home and took comprehensive measures to secure the positions of the Defense Forces.

Another detainee is a 60-year-old former law enforcement officer from Kherson, Dmytro Trigub, who joined the local occupation administration of the Russian Federation after the seizure of the community. There, the former mayor of the city, Oleksandr Kobets, appointed the collaborator as his "deputy for legal affairs." Among his main tasks was the preparation of a pseudo-referendum of the racists on the region's accession to the aggressor country.
