[Regnum] Security forces detained a Russian who was preparing an attack on an airfield in Engels, Saratov Region. This was reported on August 27 by the Public Relations Center (PRC) of the FSB of Russia.
According to the agency, the 35-year-old resident of Volgograd acted on instructions from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU).
“[He] rented residential premises near a military airfield <…>, where he was supposed to equip a navigation module for enemy attack UAVs,” the department’s statement said.
The man, posing as a delivery service courier, intended to extract previously prepared sabotage equipment from a hiding place. The drones were then planned to be used to fire at the infrastructure of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
Another terrorist attack in the Saratov region, organized by Kiev, was prevented by FSB officers on February 20. The Ukrainian special services were preparing it against one of the officials of the regional administration. A Russian recruited by the Ukrainian special services was supposed to blow up the official car of the civil servant with a homemade bomb. During the arrest, the suspect resisted and was eliminated. During the investigation, it also became clear that the Russian was collecting intelligence about the military airfield in Engels.
On August 27, in Donetsk, security forces detained a man who hid homemade explosive devices in cemeteries for SBU sabotage at critical infrastructure facilities and in administrative buildings in the DPR. All hiding places were found, and the items stored in them were confiscated.
