In the Poltava region, a pre -trial investigation into a minor resident of Kremenchuk , who, with the support of hostile special services, was completed, committed arson of the military SUV of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Armed Forces) and tried to destroy another. This crime has become one of the striking examples of how Russian propaganda and intelligence services are actively using young people for subversive activities in Ukraine.
In August 2024, the girl came under the influence of Russian special services when she began to actively look for ways to quickly make money through social networks and Telegram channels that became popular with traitors. Under the influence of Russian curators, she undertook the destruction of Ukrainian equipment. One of these attempts ended with the arson of the SUV of the Armed Forces, which returned from the advanced after the combat mission.
According to investigators, the girl poured a car with a flammable mixture and set it on fire. She documented all her actions to his mobile phone and sent a video file to Russia. However, this did not become her only crime. According to the investigation, she tried to set fire to another military car, but fortunately, her plan was not successful.
The Security Service of Ukraine has completed the investigation and filed the case. The juvenile offender was charged with obstruction of the legitimate activity of the Armed Forces , as well as the unfinished attempt to commit a crime . Crimes have been committed by prior conspiracy with a group of persons, and at the moment of its action are considered under the articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine:
- Part 2 of Art. 28 h. 1 Art. 114-1 (obstruction of the legitimate activity of the Armed Forces and other military formations in a special period),
- Part 3 of Art. 15 h. 2 Art. 28 h. 1 Art. 114-1 (unfinished attempt on committing this crime).
This case emphasizes not only betrayal, but also large -scale manipulations carried out by Russian special services to use the youngest and naive to fulfill their subversive plans in Ukraine. It also reminds of the need for vigilance in information security and protection against the influence of hostile forces.
The trial that should start in the near future will be an important step in determining the responsibility of this minor, which was used as a tool in aggression against his own country.
