Ankara, July 25 A Russian terrorist who organised a bomb attack in Russia was captured in Turkey's southwestern port city of Bodrum, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya announced.

The Russian Interpol unit made a call with the Turkish Interpol/Europol Department of Turkish Police on Wednesday and informed them that the Russian national, Evgenii Serebriakov, who organised a terrorist attack with a car bomb in Moscow in which two people were injured, arrived in Turkey, Yerlikaya said on social media platform X.
