MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Wednesday, Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) said that it had eliminated a spy ring organized by the Ukrainian Defense Ministry in Crimea, detaining both Russian and Ukrainian nationals involved in preparing terrorist attacks on the peninsula.
"An instruction to provide the level of security on the premises of all holiday resorts subordinate to the Property Management Directorate necessary for comfortable stay of tourists has been issued," Kolpakov said.
"There are no cancellations or emergency departures from holiday resorts," he pointed out.
A FSB officer died as a result of a firefight during the arrest.
The Federal Security Service also said it had prevented two overnight attempts by Kiev-organized terrorist groups from entering Crimea overnight into August 8, in which one Russian soldier was killed.
