Security Service of Ukraine

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) is the main government agency responsible for the country's national security, counterintelligence, and counterterrorism efforts. Established in 1991, the SBU plays a crucial role in protecting Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, especially in the context of ongoing geopolitical tensions and conflict. The agency is tasked with investigating crimes related to terrorism, organized crime, and corruption, and works closely with other law enforcement agencies to ensure public safety. Recently, the SBU has been involved in investigating a terrorist act following an explosion in Mykolaiv that injured several police officers.
