Ukrainian man convicted of spying for Belarus sentenced to 15 years in prison. The 24-year-old was recruited by Belarusian KGB to spy on Ukraine's northern borders and was detained in July 2025.

According to the SBU, the 24-year-old local unemployed man was recruited by Belarusian State Security Committee (KGB) to spy on Ukraine's northern borders and was detained in July 2025

The perpetrator collected data on the defense of Ukraine's northern border for a foreign special service, including locations of checkpoints and fortified areas of the Defense Forces, as well as routes and transit stops of military echelons.

The Belarusian KGB recruited a 24-year-old local unemployed man who tracked locations of Ukrainian defenders in the border area and recorded coordinates of military facilities on Google Maps.

SSU officers exposed the perpetrator in advance, documented his crimes, and detained him at his place of residence.

The agent was found guilty under Part 2 of Article 28 and Part 2 of Article 111 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (treason committed by a group of persons acting in concert under martial law).
