MOSCOW. Aug 25 (Interfax) - The public relations center of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) released a video on Thursday featuring some of the questioning of a man detained in Kaliningrad on suspicion of plotting terror attacks at a Baltic Fleet site and at the local airport.
The man on the video said he contacted Ukrainian representatives via a Telegram bot, and members of the Ukrainian Azov Regiment, designated as terrorist and banned in Russia, wrote him in July.
He said he was tasked with "blowing up a site in Pereslavskoye, and it was a site belonging to the Baltic Fleet."
The FSB said earlier that "a local resident, a citizen of the Russian Federation born in 1967 and a follower of the Azov international terrorist organization (hereinafter referred to as the ITO) banned in Russia, who was plotting sabotage and terror attacks at the sites and against the servicemen of the Russian Navy's Baltic Fleet and at the Khrabrovo Airport, had been identified and detained" in Kaliningrad.
