Russian Intelligence claims Ukraine-UK jointly conducted false flag op against US Navy
Moscow, June 16 (UNI) Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said today, that the UK and Ukraine have jointly participated in a false flag operation against Russia in the Baltic Sea, by firing an alleged Russian torpedo at a US Navy ship. The SVR called it one of the several ongoing scenarios of anti-Russian provocations in the Baltic Sea, to keep the war going. "According to the information coming to the SVR, amid growing problems for Ukraine's Armed Forces (AFU) on the front lines and the widespread moral exhaustion among Ukrainian people in the rear, the Zelensky regime is intending to escalate the subversive and terrorist activity against Russia," the SVR press bureau said in a statement, according to state-media TASS. "The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defence Ministry (GUR MO) have been instructed to collaborate closely with European intelligence services in order to carry out bloody provocations." "The Ukrainians together with the UK are currently preparing provocations in the Baltic Sea. One of the scenarios involves staging an alleged Russian torpedo attack on a US Navy ship," the SVR statement read. Ukraine has already begun handing the Soviet/Russian-made torpedoes over to the UK, the SVR said in a statement. "The Soviet/Russian-made torpedoes have already been handed over by the Ukrainian side to the UK. It is planned that some of them will explode at a 'safe distance' from the US ship, while one will not explode and will be presented to the public as evidence of Russia's 'malicious activity," the statement read. Kiev is ready to execute the provocation with a torpedo attack on a US Navy ship, the SVR said. Another scenario of a possible anti-Russian provocation in the Baltic Sea could be the UK and Ukraine, alongside with their North-European associates "accidentally" catching a Russian-made anchor mines allegedly set for sabotage in the international maritime route, the statement read. "The main goals of such subversive activities are to achieve escalation of the Ukrainian conflict, disrupt the US-Russian negotiation process, and convince the White House of the need to continue full-scale military assistance to Kiev," the statement added. It went on to slam the Ukrainian government, calling Kiev 'the perfect perpetrator of heinous provocations and terrorist attacks for the 'Perfidious Albion,' ready to do the dirty work,' calling Ukraine a 'professional warmonger' playing with 'major nuclear powers.'

Rajya Sabha MP from Assam quizzed in connection with funds ‘embezzlement'
1 2 3 Guwahati: Rajya Sabha MP from Assam Ajit Kumar Bhuyan was questioned by the Chief Minister's Special Vigilance Cell on Monday for about five hours in connection with a case of embezzlement of MP funds meant for local area development. On questioning the MP by the vigilance cell, chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma told reporters on Monday that he respects the MP but defended the inquiry. "I respect him but the road project that he recommended does not exist," he said. "These people carry a very good face value in front of the public. In this case, only his statement was pending. After this, the report will be submitted to the court. Many ACS officers have already been terminated from service after being found guilty in the case," the CM said. Four ACS officers — Munindra Bordoloi, Sharmistha Bora, Sukanya Bora and Hemant Kumar Dutta — were also booked for their alleged involvement in the case. The case was registered against the MP in April 2023 under charges of criminal conspiracy, criminal breach of trust by a public servant, disappearing evidence of offence or giving false information to screen an offender, cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property, and forgery under the IPC. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Charges of taking undue advantage to influence public servants by corrupt or illegal means and criminal misconduct by a public servant of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, were also slapped on the accused. Ahead of appearing before the investigating officer, Bhuyan told the media that he was surprised by the summons in the case related to the misappropriation of funds under his MPLAD Scheme for 2021-22 and 2022-23. He said, "It is a known fact that an MP only recommends a scheme, but the financial part and implementation of the project is done by the district commissioner. He authorises an official to look after it." Bhuyan, who is also the president of opposition bloc Asom Sonmilito Morcha (ASOM), said he posted a few questions in 2022 regarding alleged misuse of funds by the chief minister but did not get any answer. Sources said enough evidence was found against the accused during the preliminary enquiry conducted by the cell on the complaint of embezzlement of MP funds meant for the construction of roads. As per allegations, an amount of Rs 48 lakh was embezzled by the MP. The investigation was initiated following media reports in February 2023, which alleged widespread corruption and misappropriation of MPLAD funds during 2021–22 and 2022–23.
