Ukraine’s security service says a woman has been arrested over a Russian plot to kill President Volodymyr Zelensky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The service said she had tried to find out the itinerary ahead of his visit to flood-hit Mykolaiv in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukraine regularly accuses local residents who support Russia of passing information to help Moscow’s military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Zelensky confirmed he had been informed about the arrest saying the head of the SBU had updated him about the “fight against traitors”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Russia has not commented on the arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukraine’s security service, the SBU, said in a statement that the woman was arrested “red-handed” when she was trying to pass intelligence to the Russians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They alleged that ahead of the visit, she tried to gather intelligence to try to find out Mr Zelensky’s plans in the southern Mykolaiv region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They also published an image of the suspect with masked SBU officers in a kitchen, blurring the faces of both the woman and the officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Zelensky visited Mykolaiv in June to see the damage caused by the Kakhovka dam breach and then again in July after heavy Russian shelling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
