Newtalk新聞 俄羅斯聯邦安全局（FSB）今（15）日表示，已在俄羅斯西部普斯科夫州拘留一名35歲瑞典男子，指控他涉嫌假借加入俄軍為由進入俄羅斯，實際上卻受烏克蘭方面指使，企圖利用第一人稱視角（FPV）無人機對俄羅斯軍事設施發動襲擊及破壞行動。 根據《路透社》報導，俄羅斯聯邦安全局指出，這名男子目前因涉嫌非法越境遭到起訴，並可能進一步面臨其他與恐怖主義相關的指控。俄方聲稱，他以加入俄羅斯武裝部隊為掩護，計畫對軍事設施實施破壞及所謂「恐怖攻擊」。 俄羅斯聯邦安全局並公布一段據稱是該男子認罪的影片。影片中，自稱來自瑞典首都斯德哥爾摩的林德霍爾姆（Freddy Lindholm）以英語表示，他前往俄羅斯是為了利用FPV無人機執行「恐怖襲擊」及破壞行動。不過，目前無法獨立確認影片內容及相關陳述是否在自由意志下做出。 林德霍爾姆還在影片中聲稱，自己曾在烏克蘭西部捷爾諾波爾（Ternopil）與烏克蘭艾達爾營（Aidar Battalion）簽訂合約，並接受FPV無人機偵察及操作訓練。俄羅斯國家電視台隨後播放一份據稱是他與烏克蘭國防部簽署的合約副本，但相關內容目前尚未獲得獨立證實。 俄羅斯聯邦安全局（FSB）今（15）日表示，已在俄羅斯西部普斯科夫州拘留一名 35 歲瑞典男子。 圖:翻攝自X @SputnikInt 俄羅斯聯邦安全局表示，林德霍爾姆於今年2月至6月期間，以合約人員身分在俄羅斯認定為「恐怖組織」的艾達爾營擔任無人機指揮官，之後在鄰近拉脫維亞及白俄羅斯的普斯科夫州遭到拘留。不過，有關他受烏克蘭指使、參與軍事行動及策劃襲擊等說法，目前均僅來自俄方。 瑞典外交部表示，已注意到媒體對這起拘留事件的報導，但目前尚未介入此案；烏克蘭方面則尚未對此發表評論。 俄羅斯全面入侵烏克蘭以來，俄羅斯總統普丁多次要求安全部門加強防範外國間諜及破壞活動，俄方近期也接連公布涉及外國人士的間諜及破壞指控。 俄羅斯聯邦安全局13日才表示，已在俄羅斯遠東薩哈林地區拘留《北海道新聞》記者今井裕紀（Yuki Imai），懷疑其從事間諜活動。日本政府隨後要求俄方提供相關資訊並保障當事人權益，日本首相高市早苗今日則否認日本政府在俄羅斯境內從事間諜活動，顯示俄日之間的安全與外交摩擦持續升溫。延伸閱讀：川普喊停火俄仍襲烏！ 澤連斯基赴倫敦見伯納姆 英承諾加速交付防空系統給基輔華府對在烏美企遇襲保持沉默!

Newtalk新聞 中共解放軍遼寧號航空母艦編隊近日進入西太平洋海域展開訓練，適逢年底共軍可能再度發動大型圍台軍演的敏感時機，引發關注。對此，國防部情次室情研中心副主任潘俊光上校今（15）日表示，國軍已掌握遼寧號航艦編隊動態，並持續運用聯合情監偵手段全程監控，同時注意到中共近期利用軍事活動擴大認知作戰，對此將保持高度警惕，並做好事前應處。 國防部今日召開例行記者會，媒體關切，自2022年8月以來，中共幾乎每年都曾發動大型圍台軍演，隨著年底逐漸進入共軍軍演高峰期，國防部是否研判今年仍可能出現類似規模的軍事演習。 此外，針對中共解放軍遼寧號航艦編隊赴西太平洋海域展開所謂「例行性訓練」，中方宣稱相關行動旨在提升實戰化訓練及履行使命能力，並不針對特定國家或目標，媒體也詢問國防部是否掌握相關動態。 潘俊光回應，有關近期共軍軍事演習及相關動態，國防部都會運用聯合情監偵手段全盤掌握。他指出，國防部也注意到，中共近期持續透過相關宣傳手段，擴大軍事活動所帶來的認知作戰效果，這是破壞區域穩定的行為，國軍將保持高度警惕，並進行事前應處。 至於遼寧號航艦編隊動態，潘俊光證實，目前該編隊已進入西太平洋及其他海域活動，國防部將持續運用相關情監偵手段全程掌握。 潘俊光強調，遼寧號航艦編隊的相關動態，已引起周邊國家的高度緊張與關切，國防部也將持續關注相關軍事活動，並採取必要應對措施。 不過，針對今年底中共是否可能再度發動大型圍台軍演，潘俊光並未提出具體時間或規模預測，僅強調國軍將持續掌握共軍動態，保持高度警戒並預先應處。延伸閱讀：成功嶺10/24開放！M1A2T戰車、海馬士亮相 國軍估湧入逾10萬人藍喊選前普發2萬！莊瑞雄轟「圖窮匕見」：國民黨中常會權力真大中共遼寧艦編隊穿越宮古海峽 石垣島南方艦載機起降松機遷台中？顧立雄打臉傳聞：根本沒聽說過這項議題中國五海域軍演再＋1 「遼寧號」航艦編隊遠赴西太平洋
