JAKARTA - Russian hacker group Rahadhit leaked personal information about more than 1,500 employees of Ukraine's Foreign Intelligence Agency (SVR).

In an interview with Sputnik, an unnamed source of law enforcement, confirmed the authenticity of the data published on the website of the Nemezida (Nemesis) hacker group on Monday, as quoted September 28.

The information relates to Ukrainian SVR agents working under embassy protection in more than 20 countries, including the US, France, Italy, Germany, Poland, as well as Azerbaijan, Argentina, Hungary, Greece, Iraq, South Africa, Tajikistan, and others.

In addition, hacker Rahhit revealed data on Ukrainian SVR agents working on UN, European Union to NATO missions, plus 40 Ukrainian SVR locations in Ukraine, including one based in educational institutions.

The move follows RahahDit's previous move, published information on 2,500 officers from the Utama Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ukrainian military department in July.

The hacker group said the published data also contained information about a relative of a GUR agent, as well as an individual who had received payments from a GUR bank account.

RahgiDit told Sputnik that his party did not plan to leak to the public about relatives under the age of Ukrainian officers.

GUR officers include suspected drug addicts and former criminals convicted of robbery, arms trade and illegal drugs, severe injuries to the body, and rape, according to hackers.

Interestingly, the RahagiDit group said it submitted the data they hacked to law enforcement agencies.
