russian Intelligence Trying to Recruit Ukrainians for Criminal Activities Across the EU
June 02, 2025

russian special services have intensified efforts to recruit Ukrainian citizens for illegal activities in the European Union.

Targets are offered money to engage in surveillance of critical infrastructure and perform other tasks that serve the interests of the aggressor state.

In most cases, russian agents approach Ukrainians from temporarily occupied territories who are currently in vulnerable circumstances abroad.

This practice is yet another tool in russia's broader hybrid warfare campaign against both Ukraine and the European community.

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine urges all Ukrainian citizens:

If a suspicious individual attempts to contact you or proposes such activities, immediately report the incident to law enforcement or the nearest Ukrainian diplomatic mission in your country of residence.
