Russia's plot to kill Zelensky foiled

Ukraine's security service said on Monday it had arrested a Russian informant who planned to assassinate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyn last month, politico reports.

The alleged informant "was preparing a Russian airstrike in the Mykolaiv region during the visit of the president of Ukraine," the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) said.

The woman was "gathering intelligence" about the "time and approximate route list" of Zelensky's visit to Mykolaiv in late July. Based on the information, a "massive" Russian airstrike would have killed Zelensky, the SBU said.

The plotter was caught "in the act," according to the SBU, while passing on information to the Russians. The SBU subsequently increased security measures after the informant's "subversive activities" were discovered.

The informant, whose name has not been released, had previously worked as a saleswoman in a military store and lived in the southern Ukrainian city of Ochakov./ CNA.al
