Russian special services recruit Ukrainian teenagers to commit crimes

On social networks and messengers, they are offered "quick money" for setting fire to vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, government institutions, planting explosives, and sabotage. Teenagers are the most vulnerable to such manipulations, as they are easily susceptible to psychological pressure and deception due to their lack of life experience.

Such actions are classified as terrorism, which carries severe criminal penalties even for minors. Participation in arson or sabotage can result in imprisonment for up to 10 years.
