FSB din Rusia împiedică un complot împotriva mitropolitului Crimeei, acuzând Ucraina de implicare


Serviciul Federal de Securitate al Rusiei (FSB) a anunțat că a dejucat un atentat împotriva mitropolitului Crimeei, anexată de Rusia în 2014, acuzând serviciile speciale ucrainene că se află în spatele acestuia.
FSB a declarat că „a dejucat un atentat planificat de serviciile speciale ucrainene împotriva mitropolitului Tihon de Simferopol și Crimeea”. Redactor-șef al unui site de știri ortodoxe, mitropolitul Tihon, în vârstă de 66 de ani, doctor în istorie, face parte și din Consiliul consultativ pentru cultură și arte al președintelui rus. El a fost decorat în 2024 de Vladimir Putin pentru contribuția sa la reconstrucția unui complex muzeal în Crimeea și a fost numit mitropolit de Simferopol și Crimeea în 2023.
Conform FSB, un cetățean rus și un cetățean ucrainean, recrutați de serviciul de informații ucrainean prin intermediul mesageriei Telegram pentru a comite atacul împotriva mitropolitului în timpul unei călătorii la Moscova, au fost arestați în capitala rusă. Suspecții au admis că au primit un dispozitiv exploziv artizanal în decembrie 2024 "pentru a-l elimina fizic pe mitropolitul Tihon", intenționând să părăsească apoi Moscova cu pașapoarte false.
O anchetă cu privire la pregătirile pentru un atac și traficul de explozibili a fost deschisă. Rusia, care a lansat o ofensivă în Ucraina în februarie 2022, a fost martora mai multor atacuri asupra personalităților ruse sau pro-ruse în ultimii trei ani. Majoritatea acestor atacuri au fost atribuite Kievului sau revendicate de serviciile secrete ucrainene, inclusiv asasinarea recentă a generalului Igor Kirillov la Moscova, în decembrie.
