British soldiers have been warned that Russian spies may use drones to obtain information on Ukrainian troops training at military bases in the UK.

According to a circular circulated among the British military, Russian intelligence services have shown significant interest in Operation Interflex, the code name for the training of 34,000 Ukrainian recruits. The base in Bovington, Dorset, is one of the many places where Ukrainian troops are trained.

Russian agents not only use drones to monitor military bases, but also approach army instructors, both online and in person, for information. This is stated in a manual that warns British soldiers about threats. A representative of the British Ministry of Defense noted that the government takes the security of military installations very seriously and applies a wide range of measures to protect people and places.

The security of British military facilities is under threat due to the increased interest of Russian intelligence services in the training of Ukrainian soldiers. The British government takes various measures to ensure the protection of its military bases.
