Russia may accuse Ukrainians of preparing terrorist attacks in its territory, targeting ATO veterans. The reason is to provoke an escalation of the conflict in Donbas, Ukraine's SBU Security Service head Vasyl Hrytsak has said.

Hrytsak at a briefing in Kyiv on Thursday said Ukrainian citizens and former ATO participants could be targeted.

The SBU chief called on ATO veterans and Ukrainians who work in Russia to be vigilant.
