MOSCOW, May 26. /TASS/. Russia’s National Guard has detained agents for the Ukrainian security service (SBU) during targeted checks in the Kharkov Region, the Guard’s press service said in a statement on Thursday.

One of the detainees, a previous convict, said there was a disguised cache near his place of living, where the Russian National Guard found more than 20 hunting arms, ammunition rounds, a cell phone and radio communication devices, the statement reads. The man also named his accomplices, and thus an agent network was uncovered.

The other detainee has been providing his foreign curators with data on the number of Russian servicemen, as well as the positions and moves of columns of troops and military hardware, the Guard’s press-service said.

"A camera, a video recorder, a compact quadcopter and communication devices were found at his place of living. The suspect has been communicating all his collected data via a private chat on a messenger," the Guard said.
