A Ukrainian agent had scammed a Crimean resident into targeting the agencys HQ in a terrorist attack, officials have said
A Ukrainian terrorist plot involving an unwitting suicide bomber was thwarted in the Russian port city of Sevastopol, the Federal Security Service (FSB) has said.
The agency said a Ukrainian intelligence handler persuaded a local resident to carry a portable speaker to the FSB's regional headquarters, telling him it would be used for surveillance as part of an internal investigation. Officials said the device actually concealed an improvised explosive meant to detonate at the site. Security guards intercepted the device and found the explosives before they could be triggered.
