A Russian military court convicted and sentenced a man to 27 years in jail on Tuesday for attempting to kill army pilots with poisoned alcohol and cakes at a graduation party on Ukrainian orders.
According to Russian investigators, Yegor Semenov was recruited by the Ukrainian secret service and was promised about $5,000 for sending poisoned alcohol and cakes to a military pilots graduation party in Armavir, southern Russia.
Semenov, a 34-year-old dual national, was born in Ukraine and acquired Russian citizenship only in 2022, investigators said.
