An officer of Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR) has tried to use his agency’s resources to kidnap his own son from Russia, the FSB security service has claimed.
The Russian service reported on Thursday that it had caught HUR agents illegally crossing the border from Lithuania to Russia’s exclave of Kaliningrad.
“A secondary goal of the operation was the kidnapping and cross-border smuggling of an underage Russian citizen, who is the son of an HUR staff member,” the statement said.
