In Poland, an 18-year-old Ukrainian citizen was charged with 47 charges related to sabotage activities in the interests of foreign intelligence, for which he faces life imprisonment. This was reported by the Polish newspaper RMF24 on Thursday, July 16, with reference to the prosecutor's office.

It is specified that the young man was part of an organized sabotage and sabotage group. Among the episodes of the case are the application of dozens of inscriptions in support of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA, an extremist organization banned in the Russian Federation) on buildings and monuments, as well as the hanging of red and black flags.

"The latest accusation concerns the preparation of sabotage during last year's parade on Polish Army Day. He planned to fly a drone over the car in which the president was supposed to be during the parade," the publication says.

The investigation revealed that the accused received instructions via an online messenger. For completing tasks, he was rewarded in cryptocurrency through foreign exchanges. After the arrest, the defendant admitted his guilt and testified, but later retracted his words.

On July 10, the director of the Soviet Field of Glory Foundation, Remko Reiding, said that unknown persons desecrated about 150 tombstones at the cemetery of Soviet soldiers of the Ereweld memorial complex in the Dutch city of Lesden. It was noted that slogans were painted on the graves. Dutch Defense Minister Dylan Jeschilgez-Zegerius called the incident absolutely unacceptable.
