In the Kirovohrad region, two teenagers were detained for photographing checkpoints, elevators and transport routes. They did this through a mobile application where you need to look for so-called «boxes» with virtual prizes that can be exchanged for electronic money, reported the SBU. Young gamers are being urged to take photos of geolocations and photos of strategic objects. «To involve children in subversive activities, the aggressor used a popular game program for smartphones. During the route, children take photos of the area, including military and critical infrastructure in various localities. The participants of the quest upload all the information on geolocations to the database of the application,» the SBU says.
