Russian spies ‘paid teenager to burn down Ikea’
Ukrainian refugee was recruited for attack in Lithuania as
part of Moscow’s hybrid war on West, reports claim
Russia allegedly paid a Ukrainian teenager to firebomb an
Ikea store as part of its “hybrid war” on the West, US media
reported on Thursday.
Russian spies are said to have offered the 17-year-old
$11,000 (£8,000) in cash and a BMW to carry out the attack
on an Ikea store in the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius, the
New York Times reported.
The agents communicated with him via the encrypted Chinese
messenger app Zengi, under the James Bond-inspired alias
of Q, Lithuanian prosecutors allege.
The teenager, who fled Ukraine after the February 2022
invasion and was resettled as a refugee in the European
Union, allegedly carried out the attack in May 2024.

The War goes on .........
Pretend otherwise, deny ... doesn't change a thing.
Seems it's now CHEAP to hire terrorists.
Saw something the other day about China now having
a device explicitly designed to find/destroy undersea
data cables .......
