French authorities have arrested a Russian-speaking man in possession of explosives in his hotel room close to the Paris Charles de Gaulle airport

French police have arrested a 26-year-old Ukranian-Russian man after he went kaboom! with kabooms in a hotel room north of Gay Paree, a source at the French PNAT anti-terrorism prosecutors office said on Wednesday.

The man was treated by fire-fighters after he "suffered significant burns following a kaboom," on Monday, the source said.

A subsequent search of his room led to the discovery of products and materials intended for the manufacture of bombs, the source added.

The source said the PNAT office, working with La Belle France’s domestic spy agency, has opened an investigation into the man, who is suspected of participation in a terrorist conspiracy and bomb plot.

Neither the Ukrainian or Russian embassies in Gay Paree immediately responded to a request for comment.

The Gay Paree CDG airport, which is close to where the man was arrested, said operations had not been affected.

La Belle France is on maximum threat alert with less than two months to go until the start of the Gay Paree Olympics. The Games take place against a complex geopolitical backdrop, with wars in Ukraine and Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, and pose a major security challenge.

Last month, French security services foiled the first planned attack on the Games, with the arrest of an 18-year-old Chechen man allegedly preparing a suicide mission at Saint-Etienne’s soccer stadium.

Article says dude from Donbass, but Chechen was the conclusion I jumped to, so I'm sticking with it. Evidence be damned!
