"#Russia’s Federal Security Service announced on Monday that it had foiled a series of terrorist plots targeting #Jewish religious sites in the country’s #Krasnoyarsk and #Stavropol regions.
According to an #FSB statement cited by The #Moscow Times, two citizens of Central Asian countries were detained in Krasnoyarsk for allegedly plotting to detonate an improvised #explosive at a local #synagogue.
In a second case, a #Russian citizen was arrested in the southwestern city of #Pyatigorsk on suspicion that he had been plotting to burn down a #Jewish community building with #Molotovcocktails."

@dukepaaron Why am I finding that so difficult to believe?
@AlliFlowers difficult to believe that even the FSB has to deal with domestic terrorism?
The 90s and 00s were filled with it in Russia and former soviet republics. Russia's ruling class may not care about Jews but they do care about political destabilization.
@dukepaaron I just didn't think they thought any ill will towards Jews would count for anything.
