The SBU arrested an officer who was serving as a commander of a special purpose group in Ukraine's National Guard for serving as an agent of Russia's GRU since July. According to law enforcement, for $1,000 in cryptocurrency, he gave the GRU access to his personal account on Delta by connecting through a third-party device. He was also given instructions to sabotage military vehicles for money and record the results on video. pravda.com.ua/news/2026/08/2…
