In this kind of an attack the perps usually commit suicide.

From early reports these guys were hired mercenaries and their escape/exfiltration plan was to make it into Ukraine…which would have been mighty inconvenient for the SBU, Budanov, and his compatriots in MI6 and CIA.

Other assassins in the past made it into Estonia with help

So these guys were probably fed a lie that they were supposed to escape, which is they got paid only half upfront…..and the people who hired them or the SBU probably fed the Russians the info needed to take them down before they got to Ukraine

But Putin ordered they be captured alive

The real masterminds are those that did the planning and provided the funds

Using mercs recruited on social media, ostensibly from or by extremist anti-Russian warlords in the ‘ Stans, helps to muddy the water and give Ukraine plausible deniability

Always, because they believe “allah” will reward them for dying as martyrs. This incident is not what it appears to be on the surface. I don’t know what the actual truth is, but I’m convinced it’s not as simple as “Islamic terrorists attacked Russian civilians.”

If the CIA IS behind this, we are now in a very dangerous position.
