The Main Intelligence Directorate reacted to the story with blogger Oksana Voloshchuk (Ksyusha Maneken) and explained that the structure can attract people of different professions to perform tasks.

Literally: “The tasks of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry are performed by many public and non-public people who do not advertise their activities.
Military intelligence – especially in a country that is at war – is a specific structure that sometimes performs extremely specific tasks. For obvious reasons, intelligence cannot disclose all the methods of its activities to the general public.
Given the characteristics of certain tasks, for their implementation, the structure can attract very different people, different professions, status, with special skills. Fortunately, very different representatives of our society are ready to help Ukraine.
At the same time, it is wrong to publish all the tools to achieve the set goals, at least until the victory.”
Background:
- On March 3, Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the OP, arranged a meeting with bloggers on their information activities on the network during the war.
- After the event, Kyiv blogger Ksyusha Maneken decided to brag online with its GUR award, which it received last year. And this fact caused a mixed reaction on the network.
