Ukraine's security service says the suspects gathered coordinates to guide Russian strikes.

  • In Dnipro, investigators say the woman relayed strike aftermath details to her handlers and posted Russian-produced videos on TikTok urging Ukrainian troops to surrender.
  • In Kryvyi Rih, the ex-police officer allegedly scouted near locations of police and National Guard units and sought to direct attacks on reserve command posts and shelters.
  • In central Ukraine, an 18-year-old technical college student from Poltava was detained after allegedly scouting airfields and planning to plant remote-access beacons; officers seized a smartphone with handler contacts and mini video cameras.
  • In Kherson, a 65-year-old local accused of locating depots, bases and UAV groups was taken into custody, while an alleged group leader on the occupied left bank is to be charged in absentia; all detained suspects were notified of high-treason suspicions under Article 111.2 and remain held without bail with potential life sentences.
