The Security Service announced the exposure of a company in the western Ukrainian Volyn Oblast that allegedly supplied Russia with components for the production of submarines, reported the SBU press center.

The agency claims that the head of one of the Volyn companies, which manufactures high-tech products for supporting and rotating mechanisms, is involved in the organization of the scheme. These products are used for the production of heavy equipment, including submarines.

Since the start of the full-scale invasion, dealers have illegally exported nearly 200,000 units.

To hide the export, a company registered in the EU was involved, which, according to the Ukrainian special service, cooperates with the occupation authorities of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts.
