"The Federal Security Service of Russia has thwarted the unlawful activities of a Russian citizen, born in 1986, who was involved in preparing a sabotage operation on the instructions of the Ukrainian special services," the FSB said in a statement. In 2024, the detainee, while on the territory of Ukraine, established contact with a representative of the Security Service of Ukraine via the Telegram messenger and, on the instructions of his curator, as part of a humanitarian exchange, he entered Russia in 2025 "to prepare and carry out sabotage and terrorist activities at a critical infrastructure facility in the region — a gas pipeline located in the Maysky District of the Kabardino‑Balkarian Republic," the statement added.
