Three people suspected of collaborating with Russian intelligence and passing on sensitive information have been detained in Latvia over the past two weeks. These include data on military equipment, as well as Ukrainians and supporters of Ukraine.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is reported by LSM<\/a> .<\/p>\n

According to information received by journalists, the detainees are associated with the group “Antifascists of the Baltics.” Members of this group, according to the investigation, provided Russia with information about the movement of military equipment and collected information about citizens who support Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The State Security Service of Latvia reported that the group’s activities were directed against the national security of the state and were coordinated through specially created groups on Telegram.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe association of people calling themselves “Baltic Anti-fascists” has begun to expand and coordinate activities directed against the national security of Latvia,\u201d the Latvian State Security Service said.<\/p>\n

The case materials indicate that the group members tried to infiltrate drone manufacturing plants, collected data on the movement of military equipment, and recorded information about people donating to Ukraine or wearing Ukrainian symbols.<\/p>\n

The Latvian State Security Service initiated criminal proceedings against this group back in November 2022. Two members are currently on trial in Latvia, while the others have fled to Russia or Belarus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no doubt that the group’s activities were coordinated in advance with the relevant Russian services,\u201d said the prosecutor leading the case.<\/p>\n

By the way, the Latvian government has decided to allocate almost 2.5 million euros to protect Riga Airport from drone flights of unknown origin.<\/a><\/p>\n
