Russia’s Federal Security Service said it had foiled an alleged terror attack in Siberia, accusing a Ukraine born man of plotting to sabotage a key oil pipeline in the Tyumen region. The FSB claimed the suspect was acting on instructions from a banned Ukrainian organization via messaging apps and was preparing an improvised explosive device to target PJSC Transneft’s main pipeline control station. Authorities said the man was killed while resisting arrest. The incident comes amid heightened security after multiple car explosions in Moscow, including a blast that killed three people and another that killed senior Russian military officer Lieutenant General Sarvarov.
