MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russia's FSB security service said on Friday that it had thwarted a Ukrainian plot to assassinate an unnamed top Russian government official and accused Kyiv of planning similar attacks in other parts of the country.

The FSB said in a statement that the Ukrainian plot had aimed to kill the official when they visited their relatives' graves at a Moscow cemetery.

Reuters could not independently verify the FSB's assertion, but Ukraine has targeted Russian military and other officials inside Russia since Moscow sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine in February 2022.
