Journalist Karolina Pajączkowska revealed information on the monitoring of aid supplies to Ukraine. According to her relationship, a GPS transmitter was inserted into 1 of the deliveries that showed that the equipment had never hit the front. The writer besides cites the relationships of people associated with the logistics centre in Jasionka close Rzeszów, which propose that part of the weapon flows into the black market.

– “Someone” put in those GPS deliveries. He showed that they never left Lviv. And there they lay for months said Pajączkowska on the Business Mission channel.

– I have friends in Rzeszów. Jasionka, we know that it is this logistics supply center. That's where civilian companies are. There were soldiers, most frequently Americans who... They are specified a bridge between the U.S. Army, the U.S. Government and the Ukrainian army. They're besides saying that guns are coming out of the black market. – added the journalist, who repeatedly as a correspondent broadcast from conflict zones in Ukraine.

Similar claims certain circles from the march qualify as Russian misinformation. Recently, however, the problem of arms trafficking has officially begun to be recognised even by Ukrainian services.

In 1 of the actions 2 groups of traders operating in the Kiev, Lviv, Equatorial and Czerniowiecki circuits were broken up. Members of these groups, pretending to be volunteers, carried weapons out of combat areas and subsequently restored its combat properties in makeshift workshops [a small “twisted up”, they cleaned the md]. The ready equipment was sent by post, and the money was taken in the form of bank card transfers exposed to fictitious data.

In another operation, the Ukrainian police, in cooperation with the SBU, conducted as many as 700 searches and arrested 22 people suspected of trafficking in arms and ammunition. Thousands of rounds of ammunition were confiscated during the action, assault rifles, grenades, device guns and grenade launchers.

Even global organizations expressed concern over the situation. For example Interpol Secretary-General Jurgen Stock warned that arms handed over to Ukraine could yet scope criminal groups, especially after the end of the war.

Europol besides confirmed the existence of evidence of arms smuggling from Ukraine. A spokesperson for this organisation admitted that cases of black marketplace arms and military equipment trafficking have been reported, and EU law enforcement officers have found "Imprints of trafficking in dense military weapons".

Experts believe that illegal arms trafficking brought from the front will be increasingly common. The problem may affect not only Ukraine, but Europe as a whole, as it did after the conflict in the Balkans.

Ukraine had problems smuggling weapons even before the Russian invasion. By Global Organized Crime Index of 2021, The country was 1 of the largest arms smuggling markets in Europe. Between 2013 and 2015, about 300 000 tiny arms and light weapons were "lost" or stolen, only somewhat over 13 percent of which were recovered.
