That was a blatant assassination with very expensive (30M) and easily traceable radioactive material. It was a clear message to dissidents and western governments.
The assassins even took a British Airways flight to leave a radioactive trail behind. And the material was identified to come from a specific nuclear plant in Russia.
I've never heard of anything like this before.

- alecco 16y agoThat's interesting and James Bond novel worthy. But I mean the message and the ruthlessness of showing off by government agencies.
