On May 31, 2022, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) detained the leading designer of the Antonov state enterprise.

The name of the detainee was not released.

"Antonov" is engaged in the construction of aircraft.

The engineer is accused of "justifying the aggression of the Russian Federation" (Article 436-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

His fault, according to the SBU, is that he "had pro-Russian views, distributed publications in social networks justifying the aggression of the Russian Federation."

During the search, a computer, phones, photo and video materials were taken from the designer.
