Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] In Ufa, three teenagers were detained who were trying to carry out sabotage, the FSB department in Bashkiria reported on March 3.

It turned out that the teenagers were recruited through Telegram. Through the messenger they entered into correspondence with people who promised money for committing arson at a communication facility. The teenagers received instructions from them. The customers also named mandatory conditions, upon fulfillment of which they were promised a monetary reward.

At the moment when the friends tried to commit arson, they were detained. At the scene, security forces seized the substances and tools necessary to commit the crime. A criminal case was opened against the detainees under the article of attempted sabotage (part 3 of article 30, part 2 of article 281 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

The Kirovsky District Court of Ufa chose a preventive measure in the form of detention for all detainees.

As Regnum reported, on April 2, the FSB informed about the detention at the border, together with customs officers, of a cargo containing explosives. Homemade bombs were hidden in Orthodox icons. The cargo was traveling to Russia from Ukraine through Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Lithuania and Latvia.
Good lord — their route map must have twisted like a snake with appendicitis.
Security forces seized 27 ready-to-use improvised explosive devices, as well as 70 kg of explosives.
