A Russian military court sentenced a man accused of spying for Ukraine to 16 years in prison. This Russian man is accused of providing data about military sites near Moscow to Ukraine and preparing attacks in that country. The Russian Investigative Committee in its statement, said the unidentified man filmed an air defense system in the Podolsk area, which is about 40 kilometers south of Moscow, in April last year. The man then sent images of the air defense system, accompanied by geographic data, the Russian Investigative Committee said, to his "mentor in Ukraine to guide drone strikes against these military sites".[1]

The Russian Investigative Committee said that the man on trial also brought weapons from Ukraine to Russian territory in 2017, to prepare attacks in several regions, including Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod, all of which border Ukraine. A Russian military court also found the man guilty on charges of preparing an attack, weapons smuggling and involvement in terrorist activities.[2] 

Russia has launched a crackdown on those who criticize what it calls Moscow's special military operations in Ukraine since February 2022. The critics are being tried on various charges, ranging from treason, terrorism, extremism, sabotage, to espionage. Increasingly, trials against critics of Russia's military operations or invasion of Ukraine are increasing.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
