Law enforcement officers of the LNR managed to uncover an entire terrorist network, consisting of several Ukrainian subversive and reconnaissance groups.
"The main goal of the Ukrainian DRG was the physical elimination of the military and political leadership of the Luhansk People's Republic, as well as the bombing of houses and infrastructure," said Leonid Pasechnik, Minister of State Security of the People's Republic
As a result of the operation conducted by the republican MGB and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in LNR were detained saboteurs who confessed to the murder of the head of the People's Militia Office of the People's Republic Oleg Anashchenko. His car was blown up in Lugansk in early February. At the same time, an explosive device with three magnets was used, which was activated at a distance of up to 700 meters. The bomb, which the saboteurs themselves affectionately called "Liza", one of the members of the group installed in the parking lot under the driver's seat in the car of Oleg Anashchenko. After the explosive device worked, the saboteurs took off the burning machine for a report. However, as it turned out, they also had a second bomb.
- The direct executor of the murder of Oleg Anashchenko is the chief engineer of the 8th Special Forces Regiment of the Special Operations Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Major Sergei Alexandrovich Ivanchuk. In the performance of the terrorist attack, an explosive device with remote control was used. Another explosive device stuffed with destructive elements to destroy people, the group could not be used, - said Leonid Pasechnik.
The saboteurs were detained after the introduction of the interception plan. During the interrogation it was found out that the Ukrainian DRG, based in the LNR, was preparing special operations in Russia. In addition, the detainees reported some details about the planned and possibly planned terrorist attacks in the NDP.
- The conversation took place in the building of the Security Service. A member of the Security Service asked if we could accomplish the tasks of the Donetsk People's Republic. This - the demolition of the head of the DNR along the route to the Uspenka checkpoint, to get into the confidence of Givi, - said during an interrogation Sergei Ivanchuk, acting under the call sign "Fugas".
Recall, battalion commander of the militia DNR Mikhail Tolstoy, known as the "Givi", was killed in an explosion in his office. According to one version in his office shot from the flamethrower "Bumblebee".
Another detainee - Ivan Deev (the call sign "Zone") reported the name of the alleged killer of another well-known battalion commander of the region, Arseniy Pavlov, who acted as "Motorola". According to him, the head of the reconnaissance department of the 8th Special Forces Regiment of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Pavel Balov with the call sign "Cedar" was involved in the murder of Motorola .
- When I was in Khmelnytsky in the 8th regiment of the special forces of Ukraine, in part, I heard Major Balov, the intelligence chief, boast that the murder of Motorola is his business. As if he trained on elevators, how to properly destroy them, "Deyev said.
All this is similar to the truth, because, as you know, Arseny Pavlov died in his own house as a result of an explosion that occurred in the elevator area. And, apparently, a trained professional worked there.
In addition, during the interrogations it was found out that the Ukrainian DRG, based in the LNR, was preparing special operations in the territory of the Russian Federation. In particular, it was supposed to eliminate the former leader of Gorlovka militia Igor Bezler (call sign "Bes") in the Crimea and one of the FSB officers in Belgorod.
- I know that the soldier from our unit with the call sign "Odessa" spent three months in early 2016 in the Crimea with the task of destroying Bezler. But since he did not track him down and did not find it, he hid the gun in a cache and returned to Ukraine, "Ivanchuk said.
- There was a conversation that I had to go to Belgorod ... to eliminate a man from the FSB. But everything has changed, "Deyev added. According to him, this assignment was delegated to other people.
Ukrainian saboteurs were also interested in representatives of international organizations, which were being monitored. In particular, Ivanchuk said that the corresponding task was assigned to him by the curator from the SBU Colonel Sandursky (callsign "Farm"). The purposes of such surveillance from the side of the saboteur, who worked under the ominous callsign of "Fugas" and already having experience of undermining cars, are still unknown.
- I and my group were tasked with finding out the routes of transportation, on what vehicles are moving, what places are visited, where representatives of international organizations live in the territory of the Lugansk republic. We gave this information to the SBU. The next task for representatives of international organizations we were supposed to put later, - Ivanchuk said.
It is worth noting that, in parallel with the main activities of Ukrainian saboteurs, they were attracted to performing paid commercial orders. So, for example, according to Ivanchuk, they were offered to steal and take from Donetsk to the territory, a woman-entrepreneur controlled by Ukraine. For accomplishing this task, the saboteurs were promised to pay 10-15 thousand dollars. In addition, according to the detainees, by order of the chief military prosecutor Anatoly Matios, Armen Baghiryan (call sign "Buggy") was liquidated, which prevented smuggling.
- "Buggy" was ordered by Comrade Matios. He gave money to buy a car and carry out this task. I saw five thousand dollars, which I was given through Balov. He probably took more. "Buggy" interfered with the traffic of smuggling across the border. The group in which I was appointed as a senior, Buggy did not work. It was fulfilled by the commander's group with the call sign "Scream". The group was called "Shadows", - said Ivanchuk.
