[KavkazUzel] According to security forces, the man was planning to set fire to an airplane at a military airfield in the Krasnodar region on orders from Ukrainian intelligence services.
Ah. The intra-Slav war, not jihad.
He has been arrested.
During the investigative operations, it was established that a Russian citizen, born in 1986, initiated contact via WhatsApp* with a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
On instructions from his handler, the man transmitted photos and videos from military installations in the region to the Ukrainian side. He then prepared incendiary mixtures with which he planned to set fire to an airplane at a local airfield, RIA Novosti reported today.
He was arrested while preparing a crime and is currently in custody. The Investigative Department of the FSB Directorate for Krasnodar Krai is investigating the criminal case under articles of preparation for a terrorist attack and treason. The detainee faces life imprisonment.
The FSB for the Krasnodar Territory published a short video of the suspect's arrest, in which he also pointed to devices, presumably used to set fire to an airplane, located in a secret compartment.
The "Caucasian Knot" also reported that at the end of February, investigators sent the case of two teenagers from Krasnodar to court, accused of committing a terrorist attack after setting fire to a battery cabinet on the railway. The young men are currently in pretrial detention.
[FoxNews] Russian-operated shadow tankers carrying millions of dollars in sanctioned oil are transiting the English Channel, raising warnings of a potential military confrontation in NATO waters, according to reports.
America has stopped shadow tankers. So has India. Britain could, too, if only they had a fighting navy.
The movements came amid heightened tensions between Russia and NATO, with the Royal Navy stepping up surveillance of U.S.- and allied-sanctioned vessels in one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes.

Russia exports oil. They are also sanctioned. Not surprising that they would control many ships. Based on how ships are registered (or not), it would be hard to get an exact number.

When a country's military has more Admirals than warships, that kind of devolution happens.

"We heard from the State Department that we should refrain from attacks on American interests," Stefanishyna said.
