RT News: Desperate Ukrainian plot to hijack Russian Warplanes, exposed by Moscow
The Russian Security Service, FSB said that a leading figure from the US-government funded investigative organization Bellingcat, Bulgarian Christo Grozev,which presents itself as a journalistic grouping, was involved in the scheme, which it believes was "supervised by NATO intelligence agencies." The FSB specifically pointed the finger at British operatives of MI6 and NATO. The middleman claimed he had received orders directly from Christo Grozev, the Bulgarian ‘lead Russia investigator’ with Bellingcat, a controversial Western state-funded organization that was labeled “undesirable” in Russia earlier in July. Moscow has repeatedly questioned the independence of the investigative group, citing its close ties with intelligence agencies.
"They believed in the possibility of hijacking the plane so much that they revealed the location of the air defense... and a lot of other information.".
Kiev appeared to be specifically interested in Russian Su-34 fighter-bombers and Tu-22M3 strategic aircraft, according to the source.
