"The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation has thwarted the sabotage and terrorist activities of two individuals from the Transcaucasus, born in 1991 and 1998, who were acting as agents for the Security Service of Ukraine and were involved in the preparation of a terrorist attack," the FSB said in a statement. The SBU planned an attack by launching strike drones, the FSB added. The two agents were supposed to launch the attack drones in the Moscow region, with the subsequent operation of the drones being controlled from Ukrainian territory, it said. The SBU agents retrieved FPV drones and components for improvised explosive devices intended for terrorist attacks from caches in the Smolensk and Kaluga regions, the statement added.
