Three suspected Russian spies detained in Poland

This was reported by Stanislaw Żaryn, Deputy Minister Coordinator of Poland's special services, PAP reported.

He noted that as part of the investigation into the activities of the Russian spy network in Poland, the Agency managed to detain three more people. In total, 12 people were detained during the investigation.

Żaryn emphasised that the Agency is dealing with those already detained, who have been charged with espionage activities in favour of Russia. They are also accused of working for an organised criminal group. The Agency also deals with people who are currently under arrest as a result of relevant court decisions.

"We are talking about people who acted as part of a group controlled by Russian special services. They performed specific tasks on behalf of the Russian special services, which are part of typical intelligence activities, as well as propaganda," the deputy minister said.

He added that it was a whole network of people whose task was to collect information about routes and transports coming to Ukraine. In addition, the spies distributed specific content created by order of the Russian side. It was part of the current agenda of active propaganda against Poland.

According to Żaryn, this case requires far-reaching active actions of the Internal Security Agency, which is also supported by other special services.

"This is definitely a development issue that will require further action," he emphasised.
