The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) revealed on Monday that Denis Kapustin, the founder of Ukraine's right-wing Russian Volunteer Corps, was behind last week's attack on Russia's Bryansk area.

"Kapustin was the organizer and direct participant in the attack on March 2, 2023, by members of the Russian Volunteer Corps on villages in the Bryansk region," the FSB said in a statement.

In a similar context, (FSB) announced that it has foiled a Ukrainian special services effort orchestrated by Kapustin to assassinate Russian billionaire businessman and CEO of the Tsargrad group of firms Konstantin Malofeev. 

"The organizer of the crime is the founder and one of the leaders of the so-called Russian Volunteer Corps, who lives on the territory of Ukraine and acts under the control of the Ukrainian Security Service, participating in combat operations against Russian troops on the side of Ukraine. This is Russian citizen Denis Kapustin, born in 1984. The act of terrorism was planned to be carried out by detonating a homemade explosive device attached under Malofeev's car," the FSB detailed.

The Security Service also unmasked that the Ukrainian security services utilized a similar method of performing sabotage and terrorist acts in preparation for the assassination of Russian journalist Darya Dugina.

In August 2022, Russian detectives foiled Kapustin-planned sabotage and terrorist attack employing a homemade explosive device at an oil and gas complex in the Volgograd Area, FSB's Center for Public Relations stated.

The FSB further stressed that "Kapustin's associates - Russians Keiner and Ushkov, supporters of the right-wing radical organizations 'White Rex,' 'Restruct,' 'Tor Steiner,' and 'Karpatskaya Sech,' were neutralized following an armed resistance." 

"At the same time, despite statements on the Internet that 'they do not fight civilians or kill unarmed people,' the terrorists murdered two civilians, injured two more, including a kid, and looted. Employing Nazi practices from World War Two, the robbers stole local residents before locking them in a house and mining and blowing up civilian goods of crucial importance," FSB concluded.
