This report says that the Ukrainians arrested a hacker working for the
Russians who was "accused of being on "thousands" of phone calls to Russian
officials, including senior military officers and of sending text messages
to Ukrainian officials suggesting that they surrender. The equipment seized
was used to route Ukrainian mobile phone traffic to Russian networks,
according to Victor Zhora, a senior cybersecurity official in the Ukrainian
government."
