Two residents of the Donetsk region were sentenced to 15 years in prison for passing on the locations of Ukrainian Armed Forces and air defense units to Russia

Two residents of the Kramatorsk District were found guilty of treason and sentenced to 15 years in prison with confiscation of property.

One of the convicted men, a resident of Druzhkivka, for seven months passed on information to Russian intelligence services regarding the locations of personnel, armored vehicles, ammunition depots, checkpoints, artillery, air defense systems, and defensive structures in Druzhkivka, Sloviansk, and Kramatorsk.

The second man, a resident of Krasnotorka, provided the occupiers with information on the locations of Ukrainian Armed Forces equipment in the Kostyantynivka and Lyman communities, as well as data on minefields and engineering barriers.

The investigation established that one of the agents maintained contact with an FSB handler, while the other relayed information through a Russian military servicemember. Text messages and screenshots of maps were used to transmit the data.

Despite their attempts to deny involvement in the crimes, prosecutors proved their guilt in court.
