Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] Regnum. The FSB prevented an armed attack by a member of a terrorist organization banned in Russia on an Orthodox church in Adygea. This was reported by the agency's Public Relations Center.

“The terrorist was preparing an attack on a religious institution (an Orthodox church) in the city of Maikop and the murder of its clergy and guards, followed by arson of the building. He conducted reconnaissance of the area, drew up a plan of attack, acquired the necessary components and made homemade incendiary devices,” the report says.

It is noted that the terrorist, who is from one of the countries of the Central Asian region,
…so presumably he was working for ISIS or one of the other jihadi groups…
planned to film the attack to promote terrorist ideas. After the terrorist attack, he wanted to hide abroad.

The FSB reported that the criminal's activities were promptly identified and stopped during the events that were held. Prohibited materials, a flag of a terrorist organization, a knife, and components of an incendiary device were found and confiscated from him.

A criminal case has been opened under Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (terrorist attack).

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on June 23, terrorists in Dagestan attacked two Orthodox churches, two synagogues and a traffic police post in Makhachkala and Derbent. As a result of the attacks, 22 people were killed, including the rector of the church, Father Nikolai (Kotelnikov), and the head of the police department of the city of Dagestanskie Ogni, Lieutenant Colonel Mavludin Khidirnabiyev.

It also became known that among the militants were the children of the head of the Sergokalinsky district, Magomed Omarov. The former official was detained and then arrested until September 5 on charges of fraud and money laundering.

The Investigative Committee reported that the suspects in the attacks in Makhachkala and Derbent have been charged with terrorism.

On July 10, the FSB prevented a terrorist attack on the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov. On July 8, the agency's employees prevented an attempt by Ukrainian intelligence to hijack a Russian Tu-22M3 strategic bomber.
