The Security Service of Ukraine announces the arrest of five Russian agents who committed a terrorist attack in the center of Zhytomyr on November 20 this year.

According to the agency’s press service, the perpetrators remotely set off an improvised explosive device near the building of the local police district administration, and a law enforcement officer was injured as a result of the explosion.

“According to the instructions of the Russian curators, they stuffed explosives with nails and disguised them in a thermos, and detonated them “remotely” using a mobile phone. At the same time, the agents installed hidden video cameras at the scene of the incident, which recorded the detonation in real time,” the message reads.

According to the Ukrainian special service, all five persons involved, who acted separately from each other, were arrested “on hot pursuit” as a result of a special operation in the regional center, among them – a 46-year-old man from Kharkiv, who served two sentences for robbery and robbery .

The SBU notes that the recidivist bought explosives components, which he then hid in a prearranged cache, then the Russian tasks were carried out by residents of Zhytomyr aged 15, 16, 18 and 20. Two of them took these “components” and made an explosive device in the rented apartment according to the diagrams provided to them, and two other accomplices installed video cameras near the state institution, planted explosives there and set it off.

During the searches, components of an explosive device, SIM cards and mobile phones with evidence of the crime were seized from the detainees.

The investigators of the Security Service informed them about the suspicion of h. 2 Art. 258 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (terrorist act committed by a group of persons based on a prior conspiracy). The extras are in custody.
