A Kyiv resident and his associate have been sentenced to lengthy prison terms for assisting occupying Russian troops with their invasion of the country.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) said on September 5 that one of the two men sentenced by the Chernihiv city court in the country's north was found guilty of providing Russian troops with coordinates locating Ukraine's Azov Regiment.
The man, according to the SBU, worked for the Russian secret services from a country in the Middle East.
After Russia launched its unprovoked invasion of Ukraine in late February, he moved to Ukraine and continued to provide Russia with secret information, the court said.
His associate was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
