According to him, not only Budanov's wife was poisoned, but also several employees of the Defense Intelligence responsible for operations against russia.

"It's not about the bodyguards who were, for example, with Budanov's wife. It's about no less high-ranking people - heads of individual departments who are responsible specifically for operations against russia in the Defense Intelligence," Kondratiuk added.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the head of the Defense Intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, is alive and well and was not poisoned.
