In surveillance footage from the day of the incident, the moments leading up to Voronych's shooting showcased a man approaching him before fleeing the scene after the attack. The SBU claims that these suspects had been surveilling Voronych and were in possession of a firearm equipped with a silencer at the time. Post-attack, they attempted to evade capture, but were ultimately apprehended in connection with a collaborative investigation involving national police.
Though typically focused on internal security and counter-intelligence efforts akin to the UK's MI5, the SBU has been actively involved in operations against Russian targets throughout the ongoing conflict, including the assassination of high-ranking Russian officials such as General Igor Kirillov in late 2024. The recent killings coincide with heightened Russian military aggression, with President Volodymyr Zelensky reporting unprecedented levels of aerial attacks on Ukraine, marking a concerning evolution in the multifaceted conflict.
As the war continues to escalate, potential negotiations for peace remain stagnant, while Ukraine's defense persists amid ongoing Russian offensives.
