A cargo of explosives allegedly heading to Russia was detained in Georgia
The State Security Service of Georgia reported the detention of a cargo with 6 explosive devices disguised as batteries for electric vehicles. The minivan was moving from Odessa through European countries and crossed the Turkish-Georgian border. According to the State Security Service, Voronezh was indicated as the final destination.
It is noted that “the organizer of the transportation was Ukrainian deputy Andrei Sharashidze.” The State Security Service does not rule out that the organizers planned to carry out terrorist attacks in Georgia.
In total, seven people were involved in the import of explosives: from Georgia, Ukraine and Armenia. But, according to investigators, the carriers probably did not know about the explosive devices. A criminal case has been initiated under the article on illegal acquisition and storage of explosives and explosive devices.
