In a particularly horrific incident, a 14-year-old schoolgirl in Ternopil was approached on Telegram by Russian recruiters offering her money. After initial contact was established, and the schoolgirl refused to go along with the plan, Russian agents hacked her phone to force her cooperation, threatening to release intimate photographs of her onto the internet. She complied, assembled an improvised explosive device as instructed and attempted to leave it near a local police station, but was detained by Ukrainian security services. 

I doubt that stuff like this is likely going to resolve Russia's air defense issues.

These incidents have occurred all across Europe, according to a recent investigation by the Associated Press. The GRU was also behind an ambitious plot to place incendiary devices aboard several cargo planes en route to North America, one of which blew up on the tarmac at a DHL logistics hub in Leipzig, Germany, according to Western intelligence officials.

And this sort of stuff seems likely to be outright counterproductive.
