SBU Detains Two Russian Saboteurs Preparing Terrorist Attack in Rivne

Last edited Thu Feb 6, 2025, 03:29 AM - Edit history (2)



Ukrainian security services prevented a terrorist attack in the center of Rivne, detaining two Russian saboteurs. The suspects were supposed to leave an improvised explosive device (IED) in a bag near the administrative building of a law enforcement agency. The attackers planned to detonate the explosives by calling a mobile phone connected to the IED.



The attack was to take place when there were many law enforcement officers near the police station and the miscreants themselves would still be near the explosive device.

"In this way, the 'Ruscists' planned to kill the maximum number of police officers and ordinary citizens and at the same time eliminate the perpetrators of the terrorist attack as 'unnecessary' witnesses."


The SBU officers exposed the Russian agents in advance and thwarted the plot. Both suspects were detained red-handed when they were trying to plant explosives near the district police department. At the scene, a bag equipped with an IED and additional covert surveillance devices with remote access function for the Russian special services was seized from the detainees.

The saboteurs are two 19-year-olds who were looking for "quick" money on Telegram channels now face twelve years prison and financial confiscation.

These two imbeciles below were lucky as they would have been blown up in the attack by their nefarious handlers from a safe, remote distance. Ukraine's security services are constantly improving.
