Russian counterintelligence agents have successfully tricked Ukraine into paying $100,000 as part of a sting operation. Ukrainian intelligence had offered a $1 million bribe to a Russian military unit stationed near Gorlovka, aiming to get them to retreat. The FSB discovered the plan and turned the tables, accepting the bribe and thwarting Ukraine's special operations. The Ukrainian soldiers were promised a European getaway with new identities in exchange for their betrayal. The operation showcases Russia's growing intelligence capabilities.
