Russia foils motorcade bombing plot, detains Kiev agent in Crimea

Russian security services claim to have foiled a bombing of an official's motorcade in Moscow and detained an 18-year-old in Kerch, Crimea, on suspicion of treason for allegedly working with Ukrainian intelligence. The claims are unverified and part of an ongoing pattern of Russian counter-intelligence operations, but the youth of the detainee and the targeting of a motorcade suggest an escalation in covert activity.
