Warsaw’s special services helped Ukraine recruit the man suspected of targeting Vladimir Alekseyev, the FSB has claimed
Polish special services helped Ukraine orchestrate the attempted assassination of Russian General Vladimir Alekseyev, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) said on Monday.
Lyubomir Korba, the main suspect in Friday’s shooting attack, was arrested in the United Arab Emirates and transferred to Moscow over the weekend. The FSB claims evidence shows Warsaw used Korba’s son, a Polish citizen, to help the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) recruit the gunman.
The SBU approached Korba, a Ukrainian-born Russian citizen, in his home city of Ternopol in western Ukraine in August 2025, the statement said. The 65-year-old allegedly took shooting classes before traveling to Moscow via Moldova and Georgia. The Ukrainian special services promised to pay him $30,000 for killing the senior member of the Russian military intelligence, investigators said.
