🔥🔥Investigations by OSINTER NON-STOP that you may have missed:
1️⃣ How intelligence agents are allowed to steal billions with drones and defense contracts
Intelligence agents can steal the equivalent of billions if, in return, you bring them benefits. This has long been the operating principle of former fire-theater performer Babenko, who made a rapid start in the defense sector. In early July, investigators from #ДБР carried out searches at the home of Oleksii #Бабенко — the founder of LLC “#ВИРІЙ.INDUSTRY”, a multi-billion supplier of drones. However, after the searches the whole commotion quickly died down, and Babenko even managed to hold a press conference and assure everyone that everything was fine.
And now, through the Pechersky District Court of Kyiv, the State Bureau of Investigation is trying to derail consideration of a motion to seize the property and funds confiscated during the searches, hiding behind the court’s banal caseload. It gives the impression that the case is simply being “dumped” this way, since Babenko, it seems, has already managed to make a deal. However, this is not just a coincidence but another arrangement, because Babenko has long worked for #СБУ and passes them the information they need.
2️⃣How the WOG network profits from drivers and destroys Kyiv’s green zones for yet another development project
Since July, Ukraine has again seen a wave of mass fuel price increases, and this is not the end. Experts predict the cost of 1 L of A-95 will exceed 100 UAH/L. The reasons given for the abnormal price hikes include the escalation of the conflict with Iran and a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. But the real reason is something else: the simple desire of owners of large petrol station chains to make money, because the prices at the largest suppliers are, as always, identical, and the Antimonopoly Committee — which should intervene — does not stop them from profiting, because it is taking a cut.
As far back as 2016, the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine officially found that the largest fuel market operators, among them LLC “#ВОГ RETAIL”, LLC “Zolotiy Ekvator”, PE “#ОККО NAFTOPRODUCT”, LLC “Alliance Holding”, PE “#АМІК UKRAINE”, LLC “#СОКАР PETROLEUM” and LLC “PARALLEL-M LTD”, engaged in anti-competitive coordinated actions. The companies synchronously changed prices for A-95 gasoline and diesel fuel, keeping them virtually at the same level. At the same time, consumers were forced into complex bonus programs and hidden discount mechanisms that made it practically impossible to determine the real price of fuel. For such actions, LLC “WOG RETAIL” was fined more than 54 million UAH. The story of fuel price increases seems to have repeated itself.
3️⃣Oligarchs prepare for the elections: Butkevych from ATB invests stolen money in another boxing star — Usyk
ATB co-owner Hennadii #Буткевич appears to be preparing to play not only big business but also big politics. And it’s not just that his contacts with the Bankova [Presidential Office] have been talked about more frequently lately. At the same time, the media are actively discussing the possible political run of Oleksandr #Усик — a man whom Butkevych has supported for over ten years. If one has hundreds of millions of dollars and the other has unprecedented public trust among Ukrainians, such a combination is hardly accidental.
While most Ukrainians know Butkevych only as ATB’s co-owner, he has long been building a very different business empire. Through #BGV Group Management the businessman gains control over strategic Ukrainian mineral resources — graphite, titanium, beryllium, zirconium and uranium. Uranium has become his main target. As far back as 2022, the company “Atomic Energy Systems of Ukraine” initiated the transfer of three large uranium deposits to him — Safonivske, Sadove and Severynivske.
