Law enforcers have established the location of an underground warehouse where the attackers stored the stolen products.
“During the inspection of the warehouse, several tons of components were found that are subject to state export control. According to preliminary estimates of experts, the cost of the seized military goods is tens of millions of hryvnias,” the statement says.
According to investigators, the participants in the scheme misappropriated components during their repair at one of the defense facilities. Then the stolen products were taken to a rented warehouse near one of the Zhytomyr region.
During the searches, law enforcement officers found almost 60 items of parts for anti-aircraft missile systems, including control units. Now the withdrawn products are sent for examination.
As part of the criminal proceedings initiated by the SBU investigators under Part 3 of Art. 410 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, investigative and operational actions are continuing.
