The Ukrainian military intelligence service hacked the servers of the Russian authorities in Crimea, obtaining data on child abductions and military information.

The Military Intelligence Service of Ukraine (HUR) managed to access the servers of the Russian authorities in Crimea, obtaining over 100 terabytes of classified data. This information includes the official correspondence of the leader of the Russian occupation, Sergei Aksionov, and details about the illegal abductions of Ukrainian children. According to the data, 19,546 children have been deported or forcibly displaced to Russia, while only 1,605 have been brought back. The breach also exposed Russia's logistical problems, including a fuel shortage. This is the second major breach in recent months, and the Russian FSB has previously investigated possible leaks of information without results.
