‼️Two suspected members of Ukrainian military intelligence were detained on Monday, 5 October. The Ukrainian military intelligence officers detained in Vienna may have been planning an assassination attempt on former Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, who is currently in Austria. 🔸 This is the theory put forward by the Austrian newspaper Kurier following an investigation carried out jointly with the Ukrainian organisation Don’t Fund Russia. 🔸The publication notes that the detained intelligence officers belonged to the Main Intelligence Directorate’s (GUR) special unit ‘Artan’, which was established to carry out special operations behind enemy lines. At the time of their arrest, cameras and tracking devices were found in their possession (as previously reported in an investigation by Mikhail Tkach, one of the journalists detained in Vienna). 🔸Kurier draws a parallel with the attempted assassination of Ukrainian businessman Vadim Yermolaev in Monaco at the end of June. 🔸Furthermore, Kurier confirms reports of the arrest in September of the commander of a special unit of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR). 🔸The Vienna Public Prosecutor’s Office has confirmed an investigation into four Ukrainians on suspicion of espionage. @eurasianchoice
