The FSB reported on the detention of two people in Omsk and Novosibirsk who were collecting money for the militants “Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad”

FSB officers reported the detention of two accomplices of the terrorist organization “Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad” in Omsk and Novosibirsk. The official representative of the department's administration for the Omsk region, Irina Rusnak, is quoted by TASS.

According to the FSB, natives of Central Asian countries living in Omsk and Novosibirsk communicated with an emissary of Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad, who is on the international wanted list. They organized a collection of money to buy weapons for the militants of this terrorist organization, and also studied methods of making explosives, the department claims. At the same time, the detainees planned to leave Russia to join “the ranks of Islamic terrorists.”

Rusnak named the person detained in Omsk as the organizer of collecting money to buy weapons for militants, and the second person as his accomplice. The first detainee has already been arrested by a court in Omsk, the FSB added.

According to Rusnak, a criminal case has been opened against the men “under articles of a terrorist nature.” She did not name specific articles.

In February, the FSB reported the detention of 49 people, whom it called involved in “Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad” and fundraising for Syrian militants. According to the security forces, some of the detainees spread “radical Islamic ideology” on the Internet and also “justified the conduct of terrorist activities.”

The organization “Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad” in Russia is recognized as terrorist and is banned. According to the Investigative Committee, she is involved in a terrorist attack in the St. Petersburg metro in April 2017. The investigation claimed that the mastermind of the explosion, which killed 15 people, was the head of Katiba Tawhid wal-Jihad, Sirojiddin Mukhtarov. In September 2022, the Ministry of Defense reported his murder.
