A resident of Sevastopol, as reported by the regional prosecutor's office, is accused of treason for handing over to Ukrainian special services the locations of Black Sea Fleet (BSF) ships and Rosgvardia helicopters.

It was established: the defendant, born in 1980, was recruited by Ukrainian special services for confidential cooperation from July to September 2024 while in Sevastopol via messenger.

According to the supervisory agency, he took photographs of the locations of Black Sea Fleet ships, as well as the deployment and movement of Rosgvardia helicopters. The defendant then forwarded the photographs he received to a representative of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, receiving a reward for this.

The case has been referred to court.
