Ukrainian intelligence reported on the special operation “Ocheret”, during which a Russian serviceman defected to Ukraine after the explosion of the headquarters with officers.
According to the General Intelligence Directorate (GUR), the Russian, known by the call sign “Silver”, was a FPV pilot and decided to contact the fighters of the Russian Legion of Freedom. The reason for his decision was the systematic crimes committed by the command, including extrajudicial executions, beatings and bribery in his unit.
In the framework of cooperation with the Ukrainian side, Silver transmitted important data on the location, number and intentions of Russian troops in one of the directions. Then he carried out an attack on the headquarters, where his commander and other officers were located. “Silver” threw a grenade into the ventilation hole, which led directly to the basement, where the soldiers were sleeping at that time.
According to intelligence services, there were about 15 people in the room, and “Silver” carefully prepared his operation, throwing grenades that exploded in the vicinity of the commander. After the successful attack, the soldier managed to escape following a pre-planned route and crossed into Ukrainian-controlled territory.
He is now a recruit of the Legion “Liberty of Russia”.
Earlier, Kursor reported that Russians in the Kursk region are grateful to the Ukrainian Armed Forces and want “peace.”
In the Ukrainian-controlled Russian town of Sudzha in the Kursk region, local residents were baffled.
