The Russian Federal Security Service announced the detention of a Yalta resident on suspicion of an attempt on the life of former MP of Ukraine Oleh Tsariov. RIA News reports this with reference to the Russian agency.
Security officials say that the man, allegedly on instructions from the SSU, organized surveillance of Tsariov and equipped a cache of weapons. The detainee himself allegedly admitted that he was recruited in January 2023. Already in February, he got a job at the Kirov sanatorium to collect data on the traitor’s movements.
