Ukraine admits of murdering two suspected Russian agents
(MENAFN) Ukraine’s security services announced on Sunday that they have killed two suspected “Russian agents” believed to be responsible for the fatal shooting of a Security Service (SBU) colonel in Kyiv last week.
According to an official SBU statement, the two individuals—identified as operatives of Russian special services—were killed after resisting arrest during a morning “special operation” in the Kyiv region.
The announcement follows the high-profile murder of SBU Colonel Ivan Voronych in Kyiv, which prompted an intensive investigation.
The operation was led by SBU Chief Vasyl Maliuk, who said the ongoing inquiry revealed the suspects—a man and a woman—carried out the killing under orders from Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB).
“Their supervisor ordered them to monitor the SBU officer, establish his daily schedule and travel routes. Later, the informant gave the killers the coordinates of the cache where the pistol with the silencer was located,” the statement explained.
Maliuk also expressed gratitude to Ukraine’s National Police personnel for their assistance during the operation.
