Moscow: Russia has arrested three suspected Ukrainian intelligence agents and accused one of them of planning to carry out a bomb attack, the Interfax news agency cited the Federal Security Service as saying on Thursday.

The detentions come amid Ukrainian and western concerns over a buildup of Russian troops near Ukraine. The other two people in custody are suspected of gathering intelligence about strategic sites in Russia, the report said.
