Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) has thwarted a Ukrainian plot to assassinate the head of a Russian defense company in St. Petersburg, the agency claimed on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The male suspect, dressed in women’s clothes “in an attempt to mislead the investigation”<\/em> but was apprehended by officers while planting the bomb on the target’s vehicle, it added. Footage released by the agency captured the man posing as an elderly lady.<\/p>\n

According to the FSB, Ukrainian spy services recruited a man and two women online to carry out the planned car bomb attack.<\/p>\n

On the orders of their handlers, the women surveilled their target before obtaining an improvised explosive device from a stash at a local cemetery and handing it over to the would-be assassin, the agency said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Criminal cases have been launched against the suspects on preparing a terrorist act and illegal possession of explosives, the FSB said. They could also face charges of participating in a terrorist organization and treason, which carry a punishment of up to life in prison, it added.<\/p>\n

The agency warned that “Ukrainian intelligence agencies are continuing to actively search the internet for potential perpetrators of terrorist attacks and sabotage,”<\/em> and urged the public to stay vigilant and refrain from communicating with unknown contacts on messaging apps.<\/p>\n
