On Friday, Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) said that it had disrupted a terrorist plan targeting a bus station in the southern city of Essentuki.

An official statement detailed how FSB officials captured a man accused of planning the assault who is believed to be a migrant from a Central Asian republic and an ISIS member.

The FSB released footage of the arrest and following interrogation. In the video, the inmate is heard stating that he "pledged allegiance" to ISIS and is prepared to assault their orders. Following the incident, he intended to fly to Syria and join the terrorist group.

According to the FSB, the suspect planned to carry out the assault using an improvised explosive device. Officers reported finding components for the device in a hiding area in the detainee's leased garage.

The suspect also examined the site of the attack, estimated times for large gatherings, and chose the location to install the explosive device before being captured. Terrorist propaganda materials were discovered at the suspect's apartment and a criminal investigation has begun. The culprit faces life imprisonment.

In early July, the FSB announced that it had foiled an attempt by Ukrainian special services to carry out a terrorist attack targeting Russia's sole aircraft carrier, Admiral Kuznetsov, stationed in Murmansk.

"The Russian Federal Security Service has stopped attempts by Ukrainian special services to commit terrorist attacks on the heavy aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov in the city of Murmansk," the statement read.

In detail, in March 2024, a Russian military serviceman stationed on an aircraft carrier was contacted through online messaging platforms by a Ukrainian special services operative. The operative employed psychological manipulation tactics to provoke the serviceman into planning a terrorist attack on the warship.

Upon the serviceman reporting the incident to security authorities, comprehensive measures were undertaken under their supervision to gather evidence of the Ukrainians' illicit activities and identify potential collaborators and accomplices in Kiev.

In March, a terrorist attack took place at the Crocus City Hall in Moscow. that claimed the lives of more than 137 people. At least 7 people were taken into custody and charged with terrorism.

After gunmen opened fire in the #CrocusCityHall last night and killed at least 143 people, the #Russian FSB announced that the perpetrators were captured while they attempted to flee to #Ukraine.#Russia pic.twitter.com/tU9cEIeafy
