British agents with links to Ukraine are suspected of plotting to help a Russian pilot flee Russia.
The details of the “plot” were revealed by the Russian news agency Tass. On November 11, a video showing a Russian helicopter pilot was published on the agency’s website. The pilot had received instructions from the Ukrainian intelligence service (HUR) to flee Russia with his family.
A member of Ukrainian intelligence, using the pseudonym “Sergei,” is said to have contacted the pilot via the Messenger app. He then explained how to cross the border to bypass Ukrainian air defenses, and at which airfield he could land after “poisoning” his crew, the Independent reports. This would allowed him to reach Moldova, via Turkey.
The man is said to have told his story to other soldiers, who decided to alert their superiors. The FSB, the Russian intelligence service, accuses “British agents” of having participated in the “plot” in question.
