According to Ukrinform, the Security Service of Ukraine reported this.

The SSU officers exposed the enemy agent in July 2023. The investigation established that a local unemployed man recruited by the Russians was responsible for coordinating the shelling.

He came to the attention of Russia’s GRU when he posted anti-Ukrainian messages in Telegram chat rooms.

After being recruited, the perpetrator systematically surveyed Kharkiv to identify, record, and transmit the geolocations of Ukrainian troops’ temporary bases to his handler in Russia.

At the same time, the traitor attempted to track the locations and technical condition of defense facilities, railway stations, and railcar depots.

SSU officers documented the agent’s crimes and detained him while he was conducting further reconnaissance near a military facility. Mobile phones and computer equipment containing evidence of his collaboration with Russia’s GRU were seized from the man.
