Ukrainian agents tried to kidnap minor from Russia – FSB (VIDEO) --[Reported by Umva mag]

The plot targeting a Kiev intelligence officer’s Russian son was part of a foiled infiltration attempt, according to the agency

An officer of Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR) has tried to use his agency’s resources to kidnap his own son from Russia, the FSB security service has claimed.

The Russian service reported on Thursday that it had caught HUR agents illegally crossing the border from Lithuania to Russia’s exclave of Kaliningrad.

“A secondary goal of the operation was the kidnapping and cross-border smuggling of an underage Russian citizen, who is the son of an HUR staff member,” the statement said.

Footage released by the FSB showed the nighttime arrest of a car driver. A child, who appears to be in his early teens, was taken out of the vehicle in the process. People involved in the operation confirmed on camera that they were tasked with a kidnapping on Russian soil.

The FSB said that it had managed to thwart the infiltration, after identifying a Ukrainian citizen, who was trying to find weak spots in the Russian border by asking locals questions and filming the area. The Russian agency apparently let Kiev’s agent continue his activities to intercept more valuable people, when they attempt to enter.
