[REGNUM] An unidentified employee of the United States embassy stole a pointer from the Ostashkovo railway station in the Tver region, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on July 12.
According to her, in the spring in the Tver region, a road sign disappeared at the junction of a railway station.
The police found out from CCTV cameras that an unknown man had stolen the sign and put it in the trunk of a car, the license plates of which were red (they are issued by to diplomatic cars).
Later, traffic police officers stopped an employee of the American embassy for violating traffic rules, who "in all respects fit the description."
"If the loss had not been found in time, a tragedy could have happened," Zakharova wrote in her telegram channel. As a result, an employee of the American embassy was sent back to the United States.
As reported by IA REGNUM , earlier Zakharova said that the United States authorities independently undermined their consular work in Russia.
"For several years, they did not just work disgracefully in the consular sphere, they undermined all their consular work," Zakharova said.
According to her, Russia did not force the United States to reduce the number of consular employees, it was Washington's decision.

Who knows?? Person might've been made/cover blown and we used this as a distraction for a bigger issue. Magic 8 Ball may say "very doubtful" but stranger things have happened under Moscow Rules.
Or he was just a jerk that got drunk and stole a sign...

I went to college with a guy named Stewart. When he was in preppy school (St. Paul's, Concord NH), he did a road trip to Stewartstown, NH (pretty much the tip of NH) and stole the town marker sign.

[TASS] Belarusian TV also informed that it will air a two-episode documentary of the terror cells’ investigation
All members of terror cells discovered in Belarus have been apprehended, all of them are making confessions, Belarusian TV reported Monday citing the State Security Committee (KGB).
"All members of foreign-controlled terror cells have been apprehended and they are making confessions, according to the KGB. Investigations on multiple episodes are underway," the televised news broadcast said.
According to the news anchor, the investigations include a case of attempted arson of logging equipment, and an attempted explosion at the Russian military base near Vileyka. One more episode is an attempted murder of journalist Grigory Azaryonok. According to the report, the "punisher’s list" included other journalists as well.
The TV also informed that it will air a two-episode documentary of the terror cells’ investigation.
On July 2, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko claimed that sleeping terror cells, the so-called self-defense squads, have been discovered in Belarus. They allegedly aim to carry out a forceful regime change and Germany, Ukraine, the US, Poland and Lithuania are allegedly involved in their operation.
That sounds like a non-jihad kind of terror, though they certainly seem to need rounding up.
According to Lukashenko, these forces sought to destroy a large amount of logging equipment in Belarus, and blow up a Russian Navy communication hub in Vileyka. He also disclosed an attempted murder of STV reporter Grigory Azaryonok.
