Summary
Russian special services recruited two Ukrainian teenagers, aged 15 and 17, to carry out suicide bomb attacks in Ivano-Frankivsk, promising $1,700.
The teens unknowingly transported homemade explosives disguised as thermoses, which Russian handlers detonated remotely, killing one and seriously injuring the other. The blast also injured two passersby.
A second explosion occurred at the teens’ rented apartment.
Ukrainian authorities charged the surviving teen with terrorism-related crimes and warned of a new Russian tactic of exploiting and eliminating operatives to cover tracks.
My bad, you are correct; it was referring to all Russian combatants and oligarchs funding it all. I love their culture, and their people, their rich knowledge and technical prowess, but it’s all fucking wasted by these dipshits in power trying to bully Ukraine into submission.
Im sorry for assuming! You said “Russians” and I’ve seen lots of people not differentiate between the despots in power and the people who live under their fist, and it makes me sad.
