The Russian FSB has foiled a series of assassination attempts against senior Defense Ministry officials in Moscow and members of their families, Tass writes. Preparations for the assassinations were conducted by the Ukrainian special services. «The Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation stopped a series of attacks against high-ranking military personnel of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, participating in a special military operation, as well as members of their families, being prepared by agents of the Ukrainian special services,” the service reported. “As a result of these measures, four Russian citizens involved in the crime were arrested while preparing these attempts.” According to the FSB, the bombs used to kill high-ranking servicemen in Moscow were disguised as power banks and briefcases with documents.
