Russia arrests German woman in alleged bomb plot
"The FSB security agency stated that the woman, born in 1969, had been dragged into the alleged plot by a citizen from a Central Asian country, who was working on orders from Ukraine."
"The FSB said it had 'prevented a terrorist attack planned by the Kyiv regime against a law enforcement facility in the Stavropol region, involving a German citizen born in 1969.'"
"The device -- which contained an explosive charge equivalent to 1.5 kilogrammes (three pounds) of TNT -- was supposed to be detonated remotely, killing the German woman."
"A man from an unidentified Central Asian state, born in 1997 and 'a supporter of radical ideology', was found and arrested near the targeted site."
A German woman was arrested in Russia for allegedly planning a terrorist attack with a bomb in her backpack. The FSB claimed she was involved in a plot orchestrated by a Central Asian citizen working for Ukraine. The device contained an explosive charge equivalent to 1.5 kilograms of TNT and was intended to be detonated remotely. The attack was reportedly thwarted by electronic jamming. The case reflects a broader trend of detaining Western citizens in Russia, often on dubious charges, during the ongoing conflict with Ukraine.
