The director of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), Alexander Bortnikov, said on Tuesday that the US, UK and Ukraine were behind the Moscow concert hall attack that killed at least 139 people on Friday - despite repeated claims of responsibility by Islamic State.
In a high-stakes operation, Russian security services have thwarted an attempt by Ukrainian intelligence to hijack a Mi-8MTPR-1 electronic warfare helicopter. The plot was uncovered by a Russian pilot, who was offered a large bribe and a complex escape route in exchange for betraying his country. The Ukrainian agent, who went by the name 'Sergey,' also advised the pilot to poison his fellow crew members or use a weapon to ensure the success of the hijacking. The pilot, trained to recognize security threats, reported the contact to his superiors, and the situation was turned into a counter-operation by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB).

Ukraine escalates the conflict with a long-range missile strike against Russia’s Bryansk region, using the U.S.-supplied ATACMS missile system. The strike comes after Moscow issued a stern nuclear warning, with tensions further flaring as the missiles mark the first direct assault on Russia’s internationally recognized territory. Despite Russia’s defence systems intercepting some of the missiles, the strike caused significant damage, including a fire at a military facility. The use of ATACMS missiles, capable of reaching targets up to 300 km away, signals a new phase in Ukraine's military strategy, intensifying the conflict in the ongoing war

The US military has launched a series of airstrikes targeting sites in Syria associated with Iran-aligned groups, a day after an assault on America’s largest command centre in the region. The strikes, conducted by US Central Command, were in retaliation for recent attacks on US personnel stationed in Syria. Centcom emphasised that the action was a direct response to the escalating violence aimed at American forces, underscoring the US's commitment to protecting its troops and partners in the region.
The airstrikes, which hit multiple sites believed to be linked to Iranian-backed militias, aim to degrade the ability of these groups to plan and execute future attacks against US forces. The US military presence in Syria, primarily focused on combating ISIS remnants, has faced increasing threats from Iran-aligned militias, complicating efforts to stabilise the region. Centcom's statement reinforced that such attacks on US forces would not be tolerated, sending a strong message to Tehran-backed militants. The escalation comes amid growing tensions in Syria, where Iran-backed groups maintain a significant presence, particularly in the east.
