CAKE and booze laced with deadly poison was allegedly delivered to a Russian military bash in a Ukrainian plot to assassinate dozens of top pilots.<\/p>\n
The Bond-style plan to take out Putin's top-brass cronies at the elite military academy was reportedly thwarted at the last minute.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
But 77 guests avoided the killer treats as a pro-war Telegram channel reported \u201ceveryone is alive\u201d following the alleged plot.<\/p>\n
Russian pilots, some who've fought in Putin's failing war against Ukraine, were marking the 20th anniversary of their graduation from the Armavir Higher Military Aviation School.<\/p>\n
The guests included many highly decorated and senior ranking pilots from the Class of 2003.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And while the deadly 20 kilogram cake was cut, it was apparently left untouched as a crucial clue foiled Ukraine's alleged plot at the last second.<\/p>\n
When the pilots tried to identity the seemingly generous donor, academy staff found CCTV footage of a man delivering it.\u00a0<\/p>\n He was swiftly tracked by Russia\u2019s elaborate facial recognition tech as being from Melitopol in Ukraine, channel Flightbomber alleged.<\/p>\n He was also claimed to have rushed from the academy to Stavropol airport after delivering the poisoned goods, possibly to fly to Moscow and flee Russia.\u00a0<\/p>\n The alleged attempted poisoner was identified as 32-year-old E Semenov, 32, and according to the channel was detained before he confessed to the assassination attempt.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n It also claimed Ukrainian military intelligence services were responsible for the alleged bid to wipe out dozens of Russian pilots.<\/p>\n "He immediately told everything – about the cake with a potent poison, which bottles were poisoned right away, and which ones he bought to top the present up,\u201d Flightbomber claimed.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cHe explained how he knew the number of guests, and where the celebration would take place.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cEven the aviation school emblem, drawn on top of the cake, was the current emblem.\u201d<\/p>\n The pro-war Telegram channel, with almost half a million subscribers, is run by a former military ace pilot and has close links to the Russian air force.<\/p>\n A picture of the detained man was published by Baza media outlet.\u00a0<\/p>\n Reports did not say which poison was allegedly used.\u00a0<\/p>\n The man is suspected of ordering the cake from a local confectioner in Armavir, in the Krasnodar region.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cBy pure chance and thanks to the conscientiousness of the officers, who put the anonymous cake and the booze aside, no-one had time to eat the cake or taste the booze,\u201d said the channel.<\/p>\n \u201cIt would have been a disaster. 77 guests.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cBut everybody is alive. GUR [Ukrainian military intelligence] failed, and it's\u00a0good.\u201d<\/p>\n Russian secret services are reportedly hunting for \u201cconfectioners and others involved in the failed sabotage\u201d.<\/p>\n A number of pilots from the academy hold the Kremlin\u2019s highest honour – Hero of Russia.\u00a0<\/p>\n There has been no official comment from Russian law enforcement on the alleged poisoning attempt at one of the country\u2019s most prestigious military academies, founded by Stalin in 1940.<\/p>\n Flightbomber went on to warn Russian pilots of the risk of assassination by Ukraine.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cRemember that there is a war going on,\u201d cautioned the channel.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cA graduate of an aviation school like yourself is\u2026a good target.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cAnd also Ukrainians make media victories from these kinds of deaths\u2026.\u00a0Keep in mind that you cannot only be poisoned.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThere are also a thousand other ways to kill. Be careful.\u201d<\/p>\n The alleged plot comes just weeks after Russian secret services were reportedly investigating an attempt from "within their own ranks" to kill Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n They were apparently hunting a supposed\u00a0FSB\u00a0agent who was 'boasting' about taking down the dictator at a karaoke club in\u00a0Moscow.<\/p>\n An informant, named Mikhail Yurchenko, told the Telegram channel VChK-OGPU – which has close links to Vlad's security agencies- the "agent" was gloating about being given the "task" to "remove" the dictator.<\/p>\n The bizarre claim came from a meeting at Honey, a Moscow club and known haunt of\u00a0Russian\u00a0security services operatives.<\/p>\n The Russian dictator is known for taking his security extremely seriously and lives in\u00a0constant fear of being assassinated.<\/p>\n<\/picture>THREAT WITHIN <\/span><\/p>\n
