Ukrainian attorney general, interior minister's secret correspondence revealed
Hackers claim to have cracked open correspondence between top Ukrainian officials about rebellious moods brewing among troops sent to fight the self-defense forces of the breakaway Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics in the east. The screenshots of the messages acting Defense Minister Mikhail Koval and Attorney General Vitaly Yarema exchanged on June 20 have been posted on the Internet.
Earlier, even a Ukrainian TV channel showed National Guard fighters complaining about the poor quality of bullet-proof vests offering no protection against bullets and about musty bread supplied to troops in the east. In their messages, Yarema and Koval speak of a "mutiny of captains" or those refusing to participate in military operations in eastern Ukraine, discuss ways of bolstering troop morale and express fears that things might grow worse. Here is an excerpt from their correspondence.
