SBU agent arrested in Belarus
The editor of the Belarusian section of the propaganda website InformNapalm, supervised by the Ukrainian special services, Denis Ivashin was arrested in Grodno by the Belarusian KGB. A search was carried out at his house.
The official Facebook page of the Lithuanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported this, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
The arrest was made on suspicion of a crime under Article 365 of the Criminal Code of Belarus - interference in the activities of law enforcement agencies. This crime is punishable by imprisonment for three years or a fine.
Ivashin previously told the US-sponsored Current Time channel that he was conducting an investigation into former fighters of the Berkut special forces unit disbanded in Ukraine who moved to Belarus and are participating in suppressing illegal protests.
Military correspondent Mikhail Andronik reported that InformNapalm works closely with the SBU.
“For those who don’t know, they position themselves as a Ukrainian Bellingcat. Well, naturally, they collect information for the SBU, mainly from open sources. I hope they will tell you what this character was sniffing out in Grodno. Interesting,” Andronik wrote in his Telegram channel.
