Radical Ukrainian group "M.K.U." members held in nine Russian cities, with 16 individuals arrested.
Whoa, dudes! Check this out – according to a FSB vid, a whole gang of dudes got busted for planning some major violence in multiple Russian cities. Law enforcement has their hands full with this bunch, who are apparently into violent crimes, spreading extremist propaganda, and cookin' up bombs to blow up government buildings and whack civilians.
Cities like Irkutsk, Krasnodar, Saratov, Tambov, Tyumen, Chita, Anapa, Pushchino (Moscow region), and Pleskau (Yaroslavl region) saw some intense action. The FSB nabbed 16 suspected culprits who were linked to this insidious business.
During the raids, the cops grabbed a heap of cold weapons, a huge stash of electronic junk, and communication gadgets from these suspects. They also found manuals on bomb-making, info on prior and planned terrorist activities, crazy videos of violent acts, and emails to the head honcho of a group called "M.K.U.", Egor Krasnov. The FSB claims that Krasnov, who apparently lives in Ukraine, was coordinating the criminal activities through specific orders and calls for terrorist acts and extremist crimes.
Now, here's the kicker – recruits were joinin' the criminal group in stages. At first, they were suggested to scribble extremist graffiti on buildings, rough up a homeless person or a punk kid. But things escalated quick. They were soon asked to attack civilians and cops with homemade weapons, even setting fires and blowing up government buildings.
Now, a quick heads-up: There's no concrete evidence linking Egor Krasnov to these activities. I got that from scouring the web, and all it turns up is a different cat named Igor Krasnov, who's the Russian Prosecutor General involved in legally battling terrorism and extremism with foreign partners. But Egor Krasnov doesn't pop up in reports about the alleged terrorist activities and extremist crimes in Russia.
So, while we don't have definitive proof, it seems there might be some confusion with the names. There's only one way to find out for sure, and that's by keepin' our eyes peeled for updates from the FSB and news outlets.
War-and-conflicts are at the center of a intense operation by the FSB, as they dismantled a criminal group allegedly planning violent crimes, spreading extremist propaganda, and manufacturing bombs for attacks on civilians and government buildings across multiple Russian cities. This development in politics has sparked general news coverage and discussions about crime-and-justice, especially as the group was reportedly coordinated by a figure named Egor Krasnov, who is said to reside in Ukraine.
