Russia’s Federal Security Service says it prevented an alleged terror attack in Stavropol before holiday events, claiming the suspect was recruited online by Ukrainian handlers. Video released by authorities shows bomb-making materials and the arrest operation. The announcement follows reported operations in Udmurt Republic, arrests linked to an assassination attempt on General Alexeyev, and the dismantling of illegal arms networks across 37 regions. Meanwhile, Russia’s State Duma has approved legislation granting the FSB expanded authority to block internet and mobile access.
