After the spying convictions of six Bulgarians欧洲杯体育, police have warned of further Russian operations against opponents

A second Kremlin spy operation has been discovered targeting Russian dissidents in Britain, it can be revealed.

Roman Dobrokhotov , a journalist in the sights of the six Bulgarians convicted of spying for Russia , said he had been informed of fresh attempts to surveil his family.

I received a warning from the police last spring, said Dobrokhotov, 41, who moved to the UK in January 2023. These attempts are ongoing.

The details of the warning given to Dobrokhotov, who fled Moscow in 2021, are being withheld on his request, as is the location of him and his wife, Kate, and their two sons, aged eight and 10.

Six Bulgarian nationals with resident status in the UK C Vanya Gaberova, 30, Katrin Ivanova, 33, Tihomir Ivanchev, 39, Orlin Roussev, 47, Biser Dzhambazov, 43, and Ivan Stoyanov, 34 C were convicted of carrying out espionage operations at home and abroad.

Jan Marsalek, 44, an Austrian national believed to be working as a Russian agent, masterminded the British operation from Moscow despite being wanted for his links to an alleged 051.6bn fraud at the disgraced German financial company Wirecard.

Two of their targets were the journalists Christo Grozev and Dobrokhotov, who were responsible for unmasking the two Russian military intelligence officers who tried to murder Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, in Salisbury in 2018.

Messages discovered by the police revealed that Dobrokhotov had been followed so closely that his iPhone pin number was picked up by one of the spies sitting next to him on a plane.

There had also been discussions within the group about poisoning Dobrokhotov with ricin on the streets of London or abducting him using a small boat.

The police warning of a new attempt to target Dobrokhotov came months after the arrest of the spy ring in February 2024.

Dobrokhotov is the editor-in-chief of the Insider website, whose investigative work has led to about 80 companies and 60 people being hit with economic sanctions by the west over their roles in facilitating Vladimir Putins war in Ukraine.

Dobrokhotov said: I understood that after the arrest of the Bulgarians, there must be still some continuous attention to me and Christo because we didnt stop our work.

Also, because we were told by our source that, after this team controlled by [the] FSB [Russias security service] was arrested, the task C the same task C is now given to the GRU [military intelligence].

We were expecting that there will be something continuing. So after police said that they know about some new attempts, that was not very surprising, just confirmation of what our Russian source was telling us.

Dobrokhotov said he recognised the need to be constantly on the move to avoid the attentions of the Kremlin.

He said: All my family are worried, of course. They worry about me and they understand that they are not safe C if they put novichok [the biological agent used in the murder attempt on the Skripals] on the door handle, they can all suffer.

On the other hand, its the worst situation when you dont know whether you should be very much worried, or you can relax. You always doubt if you are paranoid about all of this stuff. So in some way, its good to know that you know this situation.

A counter-terrorism policing spokesperson said: Counter-terrorism policing works closely with police forces, partners and communities to identify any repressive activity by foreign states in the UK and will seek to disrupt this activity where possible.

This has been shown to be the case with a number of recent arrests and charges that have been made in relation to offences under the National Security Act.

We would encourage members of the public to report any allegations of foreign interference to their local police force.

On receipt of any such reports, officers would also assess whether there are any safeguarding or security concerns or issues and, in liaison with specialist officers, would be able to provide individuals affected with appropriate safety and security advice and support as required.

Briefings on personal safety are not the limit of our activity to keep people safe, but they do create direct connections between individuals, organisations and policing.

The importance of that advice should not be underestimated, and neither should the scale of operational activity taking place within our proactive investigations teams and with partner agencies to keep people safe.

在六名保加利亚东谈主因间谍罪名被定罪后，警方已警告称，俄罗斯将进一步针对反对派东谈主士进行四肢。

不错涌现的是，在英国，已发现第二起克里姆林宫针对俄罗斯异见东谈主士的间谍四肢。

被六名被判为为俄罗斯从事间谍行径的保加利亚东谈主盯上的记者Roman Dobrokhotov暗示，他已获知有新的监视其家庭的企图。

2023年1月搬到英国的41岁多布罗霍特夫（Dobrokhotov）暗示：“旧年春天，我收到了警方的警告。这些尝试仍在赓续。”

由于2021年逃离莫斯科的杜布罗霍托夫的申请，其收到的警告的细节、他本东谈主、太太凯特以及他们两个女儿（诀别为8岁和10岁）的场所地齐被暂时守密。

六名在英国领有居留身份的保加利亚公民――瓦尼娅·加伯娃（30岁）、卡特琳·伊万诺娃（33岁）、蒂霍米尔·伊万切夫（39岁）、奥林·鲁塞夫（47岁）、比瑟·詹巴佐夫（43岁）和伊凡·斯托亚诺夫（34岁）――因在国内和海外从事间谍行径而被定罪。

44岁的奥地利东谈主Jan Marsalek被以为是别称在俄罗斯责任的间谍，尽管他因与德国金融公司Wirecard的16亿欧元欺骗案关系而被通缉，但他仍然在莫斯科筹谋了英国的四肢。

他们两位的打击见识诀别是记者克里斯托·格罗泽夫（Christo Grozev）和多布罗霍托夫（Dobrokhotov），这两位记者在2018年揭露了两名俄罗斯军事谍报官员试图在索尔兹伯里谋杀谢尔盖·斯克里帕尔（Sergei Skripal）过火女儿尤利娅（Yulia）的行径。

警方发现的音书自大，Dobrokhotov在飞机上被追踪得如斯之近，以致于坐在他旁边的间谍之一得知了他的iPhone密码。

该组织里面还曾斟酌过在伦敦街头使用蓖麻毒素糟塌多布罗霍特夫，好像使用划子将其勒索。

在2024年2月间谍组织被捕数月后，警方发出了针对多布罗霍托夫的新迫切企图警告。

Dobrokhotov是“Insider”网站的剪辑总监，其打听责任导致约80家公司和60东谈主因在乌克兰为弗拉基米尔·普京的斗争提供便利的扮装而受到西方国度的经济制裁。

多布罗霍托夫暗示：“我显豁在保加利亚东谈主被捕后，我和克里斯托仍会受到握续的情切，因为咱们莫得住手咱们的责任。”

此外，咱们的音书开头告诉咱们，在由俄罗斯联邦安全局（FSB）控制的这支军队被逮捕后，相通的任务当今交给了俄罗斯军事谍报局（GRU）。

咱们意猜度将会有握续的四肢。因此，当警方暗示他们知谈一些新的尝试时，这并不令东谈主诧异，仅仅对咱们俄罗斯音书源的阐述。

多布罗霍托夫（Dobrokhotov）暗示，他意志到需要束缚四肢以幸免克里姆林宫（Kremlin）的幽静。

他说谈：“固然，我的家东谈主齐十摊派心。他们精致我，而且显豁淌若他们在门把手上涂上诺维乔克（Skripals谋杀未遂案中使用的生物制剂），那么他们齐会受到影响。”

另一方面，当你不知谈是否应该相配精致，已经应该舒缓时，这是最倒霉的情况。你老是会怀疑我方是否因为这些事情而过度精致。因此，从某种意念念上说，知谈我方了解这种景色是件善事。

别称反恐警务发言东谈主暗示：“反恐警务与警方、相助伙伴和社区邃密相助，以识别任何番邦国度在英国的弹压行径，并将在可能的情况下寻求打断这种行径。”

这一情况已在最近因违抗《国度安全法》而进行的逮捕和指控中获取了证实。

咱们饱读舞公众向当地警方陈诉任何关系番邦插手的指控。

在收到任何此类陈诉后，侦探还会评估是否存在职何保护或安全方面的费神或问题，并会与专科侦探联接，左证需要为受影响东谈主员提供合适的安全和安全提倡及撑握。

对于个东谈主安全的简报，并不是咱们保护东谈主们安全的沿途行径，但它们照真的个东谈主、组织和警务之间树立了径直的连结。

该提倡的要紧性控制低估欧洲杯体育，相通要紧的是咱们主动打听小组和与相助伙伴机构开展的运营行径范畴，以保护东谈主们的安全。
