Moscow reportedly carrying out ‘overhaul’ of
security service over data leaks to Ukraine, says US thinktank
Russia’s federal security service, the FSB, seems to
be conducting “a large-scale overahaul of domestic security organs,” the
Institute for the Study of War, a US thinktank, reports in its update today.
The
overhaul appears to be related to leaks of data to Ukraine, the ISW reports:
The Russian
Federal Security Service (FSB) appears to be conducting a large-scale overhaul
of domestic security organs. Russian state-controlled outlet TASS reported on
19 April that the FSB and the Main Directorate of the Security Service of the
Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) have been conducting mass checks at the
Moscow Central District Internal Affairs Directorate and several Moscow
district police offices for the past several weeks due to “the leakage of data
from Russian security forces at the request of Ukrainian citizens.”
Russian
outlets reported that the suspected police officers leaked personal data on Russian
security forces to external individuals, some of whom are Ukrainian citizens.
The
reported FSB and MVD raids on the Moscow police departments are occurring
against the backdrop of a series of arrests and dismissals of prominent members
of Rosgvardia (Russian National Guard) leadership.
