A 17-year-old girl has been detained in the Zhytomyr region for allegedly assisting the FSB in poisoning Ukrainian soldiers, according to the National Police. The investigation indicates the girl, following instructions from a Russian handler, packaged narcotic substances and sent them by mail, with a promise of at least 5,000 hryvnias.

Russian agents reportedly used Telegram to offer soldiers free drugs, demanding they consume them on camera after receiving the packages. The capsules contained a lethal dose of methadone, unknown to the recipients. The girl has been notified of suspicion for complicity in intentional homicide and illegal drug trafficking, facing up to 15 years in prison.
