Ukraine's Defence Intelligence warns: Russia is preparing provocations in Ukrainian cities — what is known

The agency's press service reported this.

According to the intelligence, unknown individuals are actively seeking people willing to participate in fake protests for financial compensation via anonymous accounts on the messaging app Telegram. The goal of these actions is to discredit Ukraine's military and political leadership as well as its intelligence agencies.

The organizers require participants to document the events with photos and videos to create a propaganda "image." The ultimate aim of these actions is to polarize Ukrainian society and create internal tension in the country.

According to the Defence Intelligence, such paid activities are planned to take place in Kyiv, Odesa, Dnipro, and other regional centers in Ukraine.

The military intelligence warns citizens not to participate in such events, which threaten Ukraine's national security. It is especially important to remain vigilant during wartime, when the enemy attempts to exploit any opportunity to destabilize the situation within the country.
