[Regnum] The terrorist who was preparing an attack on a Moscow synagogue rented an apartment not far from the religious building. According to RIA Novosti, the man lived on the top floor of a 22-story panel building in the Otradny district.

It is two kilometers from the synagogue; you can walk to it in 20 minutes or drive in four minutes.

The apartment is now sealed by law enforcement agencies. You can't get into it.

According to residents of the high-rise building, the man behaved quietly, without attracting the attention of neighbors.

As Regnum reported, the FSB stopped the activities of a native of one of the countries of Central Asia, who was planning a terrorist attack on a religious Jewish institution in Moscow. The would-be terrorist was eliminated during his arrest on April 10. He offered armed resistance.

Security forces established that a foreigner born in 2002, while serving a sentence in a colony in his homeland, established contact with persons convicted of participating in terrorist activities, under whose influence he began to share the ideology of an international terrorist organization banned in Russia.

After his release, in November 2023, the man came to Moscow and began preparing for a terrorist attack in the synagogue. During a search of his home, it turned out that the man kept a bomb of his own making in the apartment, under the mattress.
Sounds uncomfortable…
Components for making an improvised explosive device were also found here.

Details of the liquidation of a terrorist near a synagogue in Moscow have become known

FSB officers eliminated someone who was preparing a terrorist attack near the synagogue of the Federation of Jewish Communities of Russia “Darkei Shalom” in the Moscow district of Otradnoye. The head of this religious community, Rabbi Dovid Karpov, spoke about this on April 17.

“I was told by friends that the detention (of a terrorist preparing a terrorist attack in one of the synagogues in Moscow, as reported by the FSB on April 11 - Ed.) took place on Berezovaya Alley,” he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

According to the rabbi, law enforcement officers came to the synagogue, asked questions, carried out operational actions and were interested in CCTV cameras, but he was not there at the time, and they communicated with the security.

As a representative of the security service said, security forces came to the religious institution before the publication of reports about the liquidation of the terrorist. He noted that during the prevention of a terrorist attack in the capital’s synagogue in March, the terrorists were found to have a map with a dot marking this synagogue.

This time, law enforcement officers did not report preparations for a terrorist attack against the synagogue, the security representative clarified, noting that, in his opinion, this was not necessary.

As Regnum reported, on April 10, the FSB stopped the activities of a native of one of the Central Asian states, who was planning a terrorist attack on a religious Jewish institution in Moscow. The man resisted arrest and was eliminated.

On April 12, the FSB published a video from the home of someone preparing a terrorist attack in the capital’s synagogue. A native of Central Asia kept a homemade bomb in his apartment under his mattress. A man born in 2002 came to Moscow in November 2023, where he began preparing for a terrorist attack.

On April 11, FSB officers also stopped the activities of a terrorist cell that was planning a terrorist attack on a Russian army facility in Donetsk. The group included six citizens of one of the Central Asian countries.

A dark, stormy night for our sheikh
Once proved that he wasn't a fake:
A mattress of doom
That concealed no kaboom
Kept the sensitive Muslim awake!
