According to law enforcement officers, personnel staff of the Russian special service are involved in resonant killings and sabotage in the territory of Ukraine and the European Union, including the undermining of a military object in the Czech Republic. Due to the "specificity" of the tasks of the power of special operations are accountable to the chief of the General Staff of the Russian Federation, but "in some cases" subordinate directly to Putin.
The Security Service found that at the Kremlin's instructions in 2015, representatives of this special service organized the blasting of the united composition of the Armed Forces missile and artillery weapons in Svatovo in Luhansk region. As a result of multi -stage operational work, the SBU and DBR staff established the whole sequence of preparation and committing this sabotage, as well as identified its organizers and performers.

From there, the aggressor launched drones in the direction of the Armed Forces in Svatovo.
When approaching the object, Russian drones dropped out the ignition grenades with a parachute system. As a result of a hostile hit, the warehouses were detonated by the entire stock of ammunition, which were stored there. Also, in cooperation with the Czech partners, the SBU and DBR staff established the involvement of the Russian Armed Forces forces in the departure of the warehouse with weapons in the city of Vrbetyice in the Czech Republic in 2014.
