The head of the Kharkiv prosecutor's office discussed how Russian intelligence services are recruiting minors.

In the Kharkiv region, this trend is gradually declining.
Глава прокуратуры Харьковской области сообщил о вербовке подростков российскими спецслужбами.

In the Kharkiv region, Russian special services are actively recruiting children.

This was reported by Alexander Filchakov, the head of the Kharkiv regional prosecutor's office, in an interview with OBOZ.UA, as conveyed by "Dumka".

"Unfortunately, this is true. Currently, a pre-trial investigation is underway in seven criminal cases related to the arson of vehicles belonging to military personnel, as well as relay cabinets of "Ukrzaliznytsia". Thirteen minors are being checked for involvement. The youngest individual recruited by the Russians is just 10 years old," he noted.

At present, in five criminal cases, six individuals have already been notified of suspicion. Minors were lured into sabotage activities via the Telegram messenger, with promises of money in return.

"This is, in my opinion, the most vulnerable category of society. Children are more susceptible to influence. Law enforcement is currently conducting comprehensive and systematic work among minors, explaining to them, in particular, the consequences of their actions. There are already results: since September, the trend of committing these crimes has decreased both among adults and minors," he emphasized.
