An accomplice of Ukrainian saboteurs, who had produced and passed on several bombs to be used in terrorist attacks, was apprehended in the Zaporozhye region, on Monday, according to the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB).

"The Russian Federal Security Service, together with the Russian Interior Ministry, has stopped the activities of a citizen of Ukraine, born in 1968, who assembled improvised explosive devices for a sabotage and terrorist group operating in the Zaporizhzhia region on the instructions of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine," the FSB said in a statement.    

Earlier in June, the FSB also apprehended a group of would-be smugglers hoarding the radioactive isotope Cesium-137. The FSB, at the time, confirmed that if the smuggling had gone through, the buyers would have opted to use the isotope to frame Russia in Ukraine.
