This was reported on Facebook by the spokesman for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Artem Shevchenko.
“Trainings of special forces of the National Police (KORD) and the State Border Guard Service (Dozor) at the Boryspil airport.” Passengers, please do not worry - everything is happening in a remote terminal F, which is not in use,” he wrote.
According to the legend of the exercise, a meeting of the leaders of two transnational organized crime groups was to take place at the airport. An unidentified arms dealer was also planned to be present. One of the criminals, accompanied by security, arrived on a charter flight from the Russian Federation to Kyiv, where other criminals were waiting for him.
The task of the Watch was to apprehend the leader of a Russian criminal group. In turn, KORD was supposed to detain other criminals who arrived at the airport building.
The special forces who took part in the exercises completed an operations planning course under the guidance of experts from the FAST special forces of the Drug Enforcement Administration of the US Department of Justice.
The exercise was observed by Prime Minister Vladimir Groysman, Minister of Internal Affairs Arsen Avakov, head of the National Police Khatia Dekanoidze, and US Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch.
