Marochko: Ukrainian security forces train future saboteurs using NATO training manuals – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

“Courses on mine explosives have been organized for boys and girls over 16 years of age. The training is carried out according to NATO methodological recommendations,” he said.

Teenagers, Marochko added, are taught how to assemble explosive devices and place and defuse mines.

Classes are held “in the town of Kharkov, in a civil institution.”

Earlier, the head of the Ukrainian Security Service, Vasily Malyuk, stated that kyiv intends to strengthen sabotage operations against Russia in 2024.

Recall that since the beginning of hostilities, the FSB periodically reported on the arrest of persons who committed or attempted to commit sabotage on the instructions of the Ukrainian special services, as well as on the disclosure of a secret network of SBU agents.

The head of the FSB, Alexander Bortnikov, previously warned about the intensification of its sabotage activities. He drew attention to the fact that kyiv is intensifying the “secret struggle, sending agents, saboteurs” and also establishing relations with those who, being in Russia, want to cause harm in the rear. However, Russian intelligence services are successfully working proactively.
