2 Russian-born #Czech citizens ran a #hotel in #Greece that doubled as #SafeHouse for infamous unit of Russia’s military intelligence agency (GRU) as it carried out #bombings & #poisonings across Europe
Husband/wife Nikolay & Elena #Saposnikov ran Villa Elena, a 3-story hotel hosted members of #Kremlin's “most grimly accomplished #assassination and #sabotage squad,” Unit #29155, on a regular basis for the last 15 years.
In November 2011, #GRU Unit #29155 blew up an ammunition depot in #Lovnidol, #Bulgaria, containing artillery destined for Georgia. It was the first known terror attack perpetrated by the team of hitmen and saboteurs who would later poison Sergei and Yulia #Skripal in #England, a Bulgarian arms dealer in #Sofia, and blow up a host of other storage facilities and buildings across #NATO territories.
