The wife of a Ukrainian prisoner of war explains how Russia attempted to recruit her for sabotage.
The 42-year-old had been waiting for news of her husband Dima, an army medic captured by Russia, for more than two years when she suddenly received a phone call.
The voice at the end of the phone told her that if she committed treason against Ukraine, Dima could be eligible for better treatment in prison, or even early release.
Later, the Security Service of Ukraine told Svitlana that the man she’d been talking to was indeed in Russia, and she should break off contact.
In a statement to the BBC, the Security Service of Ukraine said co-operating with Russian agents "will in no way ease the plight of the prisoner; on the contrary, it may significantly complicate their chances of being exchanged."
