A resident of Kharkiv, who “leaked” information about the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the enemy, received 12 years in prison. Izyum was found guilty of disseminating information about the location of the Armed Forces of Ukraine under martial law (Part 3 of Article 114-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

She was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Prosecutors proved that from May to July 2023, the convicted person sent text messages to a Russian agent via messenger with data on the movement and location of military equipment and personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkiv region.
