Ukraine says it caught agents for Russia plotting Zelenskiy’s murder

Ukraine 's state security service said it caught two agents for Russia plotting the assassination of President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and other top officials as "a gift" for Vladimir Putin as he was sworn in for a new term in the Kremlin on Tuesday.The two men were colonels in Ukraine 's state guard service recruited by Russia 's Federal Security Service who leaked classified information to Moscow, the Security Service of Ukraine said on the Telegram app.

There was no immediate comment from Moscow.The Kremlin declined to comment last month when asked about the arrest in Poland of a man accused of working with Russian intelligence to prepare a possible attempt to assassinate Zelenskiy.The Ukrainian leader, who has led his country's effort to fend off Russia's more than two-year-old invasion, said last autumn that his security services had foiled at least five Russian plots to assassinate him.
