The FSB arrested five members of the sabotage group, organised by the Ukrainan Security Services (SBU) to carry out a terror attack on Russia-controlled territory, an official statement read.
"Amid the special military operation to demilitarise and de-Nazify Ukraine, the Federal Security Service foiled the activities of a Ukrainian sabotage and terrorist group, which, on the instructions of SBU employees, was preparing a terrorist attack against a Russian humanitarian convoy and Russian military personnel using a car bomb", the FSB said.
The arrested operatives were charged with a preparation of a terrorist attack, the statement added. In a video, published by the FSB, one of the detainees confessed that they had implanted 8 kilos of plastic explosives in the car's bumper and planned to detonate it 5 metres away from the convoy.
