The details of the operation to kill Volodymyr Zelensky are revealed. The Ukrainian service blocked an assassination attempt yesterday, after the Russians had recruited two people into the security group of the Ukrainian president. Today, the details from the payments to the method of execution have come out.
How much did Zelenski's murder cost ? -" From 46 thousand to 74 thousand euros. They had to hit the president as he went to record his traditional evening video message ."
When ?- " Before Orthodox Easter, last Sunday ".
How ? - " The plan was to take him hostage and then kill him ".
Why not kill him immediately? - " Because at the same time they wanted to attack the two leaders of Ukrainian services, Budanov and Malyuk. They were not with him...". "One of the two assassins was supposed to keep an eye on Budanov's building, wait for him to drive up and send a signal to the Russians. At that point they would launch a missile, then two FPV drones to kill the survivors, finally a second missile to make a clean sweep ."
Why didn't this happen ? - " We arrived first ".
This is the plan that was drawn up to hang Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The Ukrainian service has released a video of one of the arrested spies, with his face covered, detailing the price, methods and dangers of the latest betrayal. So is someone from the Secret Service giving details.
The two colonels, one of whom was a department head and had important roles, were part of the State Security Administration, Udo, which is responsible for the security of President Volodymyr Zelensky. The SBU and SSU, the intelligence and counterintelligence services, arrested them almost red-handed. There have even been interceptions. "I have at least 20-30 minutes to leave," a Russian voice is heard, and then: "As you leave, you will probably hear loud explosions." Both have been under surveillance for some time and appear to have had ties to the Russians since before the 2022 invasion.
The Ukrainian 007s also gave the names of three Russian spies who contacted them: Maxim Mishustine, Dmitry Perlin, Alexey Kornev, all of whom served in the 5th FSB office in Moscow. The "Zelensky" operation would have started a few weeks ago, probably with an attempt to corrupt some of the president's bodyguards.
One of the two officers, the prosecution says, had arrived from another Ukrainian region and had personally brought a drone, Russian ammunition, an RPG-7 rocket launcher and a Mon-90 anti-personnel mine. "The attack would be a gift for Putin, on the occasion of his inauguration ceremony": a beautiful gift, where together with Zelensky, the head of the Gur military intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, and the head of the SSU, Vasyl Malyuk, were also intended to be killed. The two arrested colonels will end up on trial, accused of high treason and inciting a terrorist attack in collaboration with enemy services. Almost certain fate, life imprisonment.
"We must never let our guard down," Malyuk comments now: "In these things, the Russians are very skilled and very expert ... We have lost count, since February 24, 2022, of how many times they have tried to eliminate " "Zen".
Last November, the Ukrainian president spoke of about ten attacks, his adviser Mychajlo Podoljak counts at least a dozen, security secretary Oleksiy Danilov always remembers the "terrible week" in which the Russians tried three times. / Adapted "Pamphlet" from "Corriere Della Sera"
