Descriptions

Head of Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (GRU)

Australian Sanctions Consolidated List,

compte tenu du poste à responsabilités qu'il occupait en tant que premier adjoint du chef du GRU (alias le GU) au moment considéré, il est responsable de la détention, du transport et de l'utilisation à Salisbury, au cours du week- end du 4 mars 2018, de l'agent neurotoxique “Novitchok” par des agents du GRU

French National Asset Freezing System,

Igor Kostyukov est actuellement le chef de la direction générale du renseignement de l’état-major des forces armées de la Fédération de Russie (GU/GRU), dont il a précédemment été le premier chef adjoint. L’une des unités sous son commandement est le 85e Centre principal des services spéciaux (GTsSS) (autrement connu sous les noms “unité militaire 26165”, “APT28”, “Fancy Bear”, “Sofacy Group”, “Pawn Storm” et “Strontium”). À ce titre, Igor Kostyukov est responsable des cyberattaques menées par le GTsSS, y compris de celles ayant des effets importants qui constituent une menace extérieure pour l’Union ou ses États membres. En particulier, des membres du renseignement militaire du GTsSS ont participé à la cyberattaque contre le parlement fédéral allemand (Deutscher Bundestag) en avril et mai 2015 et à la tentative de cyberattaque, qui visait le piratage du réseau WiFi de l’Organisation pour l’interdiction des armes chimiques (OIAC) aux Pays-Bas en avril 2018. La cyberattaque contre le parlement fédéral allemand a ciblé le système d’information du parlement et en a perturbé le fonctionnement pendant plusieurs jours. Une importante quantité de données a été volée et les comptes de courrier électronique de plusieurs parlementaires, ainsi que de l’ancienne chancelière Angela Merkel, ont été affectés. Le GRU continue de mener activement des cyberattaques contre l’Union ou ses États membres. En tant que membre du GRU, Igor Kostyukov participe donc aux cyberattaques ayant des effets importants, y compris les tentatives de cyberattaques ayant des effets potentiellement importants, qui constituent une menace extérieure pour l’Union ou ses États membres.
