Bortnikov announced the persistence of the terrorist threat in Russia. “You see what is happening in the Belgorod region, Bryansk, Kursk, if this is the border region,” he said.
Bortnikov said that terrorist attacks organized by the military intelligence department and the Security Service of Ukraine were also prevented in other regions. State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin said that terrorists and those who stand behind them hope that through terrorist attacks they will be able to split Russian society.
