Suspected Russian Terrorist Detonates 'Mother of Satan' Bomb in Paris Hotel

[Social Media]

 

A 26-year-old suspected terrorist, believed to be of Ukrainian-Russian origin, triggered an improvised bomb in a Paris airport hotel using the notorious "Mother of Satan" chemicals favored by Islamic State (IS) bombers. The explosion occurred at the B&B Hotel within the Charles de Gaulle Airport perimeter, the largest airport in France.

 

The suspect, who has not been named, suffered severe burns to his face and arms after igniting Triacetone Triperoxide (TATP) in his £80-per-night room. Despite his injuries, he was able to communicate with officers from France's domestic security service, the General Directorate of Internal Security (DGSI).

 

Details of the incident emerged as U.S. President Joe Biden arrived in Paris for the D-Day 80th anniversary commemorations, joining other world leaders including French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

 

The Incident and Its Context

The TATP chemicals found at the hotel are infamous for their use in previous high-profile terrorist attacks. IS suicide bombers employed them during the November 2015 Paris attacks, which killed 130 people, and the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, which resulted in 22 deaths and over 1,000 injuries. Known as "Mother of Satan" due to its volatility, TATP has become a preferred explosive for terrorist groups like IS and Al-Qaeda.

French authorities, wary of potential Russian interference and terror attacks leading up to the 2024 Paris Olympics, were swift to respond. Initial findings revealed products and materials intended for explosive devices at the scene. "One of the improvised explosive devices exploded. The hotel had to be evacuated," a source from France's national anti-terrorist prosecutor's office told BFMTV.

 

The suspect, who hails from the Donbas region of Ukraine and speaks Russian, was found with bomb-making equipment and multiple passports in his luggage. He claimed that he was constructing homemade batteries for mobile phones when one exploded. This explanation did not deter anti-terrorism prosecutors from opening a formal investigation into various alleged offenses, including participation in a terrorist criminal association and possession of incendiary or explosive substances.

 

 

The Broader Implications

The incident underscores growing concerns about Russian agents plotting atrocities in Europe. Earlier, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned of Moscow-run agents planning acts of sabotage across the continent. In May, Tusk announced the arrest of nine individuals accused of preparing sabotage in EU member states in coordination with Russian intelligence. These detainees, hailing from Belarus, Poland, and Ukraine, were implicated in beatings, arson, and attempted arson, all allegedly conducted on behalf of Russian services. This Paris incident adds to the mounting evidence of Russian involvement in violent acts across Europe. Multiple European intelligence agencies have alerted their governments about Russia's plans for such activities.

 

Reactions and Security Measures

The explosion at the B&B Hotel prompted an immediate evacuation and closure of the establishment. The 2-star hotel, frequently used by British travelers, boasts 226 air-conditioned, non-smoking rooms and offers 24-hour check-in service. Its proximity to the airport makes it a convenient choice for travelers, but the recent events have cast a shadow over its reputation.

 

The suspect, who arrived in France "very recently" and booked the hotel room under his own name, is now recovering from his wounds and cooperating with officials. French anti-terrorism prosecutors are delving deeper into the case, exploring charges related to terrorist activities and possession of explosive materials.

 

A Call for Vigilance

The incident highlights the persistent threat of terrorism and the need for heightened security measures, especially in the run-up to major international events like the Paris Olympics. The use of TATP, a hallmark of IS and Al-Qaeda bombings, signals a dangerous trend that security agencies must address. UN Secretary-General António Guterres has repeatedly warned that the fight against terrorism and the protection of civilians are paramount in maintaining global security. The Paris hotel explosion serves as a stark reminder of these ongoing challenges and the importance of international cooperation in countering terrorism.

 

As the investigation unfolds, the focus will remain on preventing future attacks and ensuring the safety of citizens and visitors alike. The global community watches closely as French authorities work to uncover the full extent of the plot and its connections to broader terrorist activities.

Sounds very Mickey Duck sort of operation. If it was an officially sanctioned Russian operation I'd expect it to have been more professionally done.

 

I have my opinions on it, but I'll leave it up to others to draw their own conclusions.

I sincerely hope the French are with holding pain medication so he can (savor) his commitment what ever they may be,on the bright side perhaps if something more serious happens it can be used as an attack against a nato country and get Ukraine some relief ehh

The Ukraine will get relief once their last soldier is dead in this American proxy war.

In a display of tactical and international political genius the U.S. used their black-op covert controls to order Russian forces to invade Ukraine.

No that happened in 2014. Former Chaney aid and Obama\Biden State Dept official, a member of the neo-con Kagan Clan, Vicky Nuland  was up to her armpits in the Kyiv coup.                                 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957

Same as what the Yanks threatened in 1962 when the USSR put nuclear missiles in Cuba. Biden knew he was baiting gangster Putin into invading Ukraine when he stated that Ukraine would be gaining NATO membership. Dumb is believing the nonsense fed to you by propaganda media like the right wing trash British tabloids, SKY NEWS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX News......... Did you not learn anything after WMD in Iraq????? Still eating Freedumb Fries????

Hmm… sounds suspiciously like what they are doing across the Taiwan Straits by supporting secession, supplying arms and training soldiers in Taiwan and the Philippines. Surely they are not trying to provoke a conflict with China? Although I have heard a few US generals stating openly that they expect war with China by next year.

Dumber is believing that Putin's Russia has a right to control Ukraine, which Russia already agreed was an sovereign nation. 

 

Below that is believing the US navel blockade on the high seas stopping Russian ships with Russian nukes is somehow equivalent to Russia invading and slaughtering the population of Ukraine.  

 

But that's what soundbites do to people.

You ignore the facts, black out the inconvenient truth, that doesn't fit your narrative, like most conspiracy theorists.

Ukraine has dozens of public health lab that received financial and other support from the US, EU and WHO. Hunter Biden on the board of Burisma. The Nordstream blowed up investigation closed in 2024 without identying the perpetrators. What are the conspiracies that you want us to believe.

Your expectations might well be wrong.

 

Remember when the ex-FSB asset Alexander Litvinenko was killed when polonium was put in his tea in London?

 

Do you know how the GRU perps were caught? The crucible in which they carried the radioactive polonium was poorly constructed/chosen for the job. The clowns left a radioactive trail of bread crumbs all the way back to their hotel safe.

 

Also, the GRU operatives really screwed up when they tried to kill Sergei Skripal and his daughter in the UK. They were not only unsuccessful, they left the Novichok carrying device (a perfume bottle) in the trash, which was found by Dawn Sturgess, who had some of the 'perfume' sprayed on her wrist, which subsequently killed her.

 

Another screw up was when the GRU set up Konstantin Kilimnik to meet the felon's Campaign Manager Paul Manafort in Spain to receive detailed internal polling data. They did it in the open, so the meeting was reported and subsequently even appeared in the Republican-chaired SSCI Rerport on cooperation between the felon's 2016 campaign and Russia. I guess in this latter incident they just figured the felon could lie his way out of it and his cult in Congress would back him.

 

The GRU/FSB/SVR does some things well and some things really poorly. In this Paris incident, it may well be intended to be public and haphazard/incompetent, as it sends a message that 'there are 'independent' people out there who are Russian patriots, and they will act on their own". That is a tactic also used by al Qaeda, who often will sign off on an amateur pulling off a terror attack. The intent is the message, not the act itself.

I assume the pegman is from Winterpeg (Winnipeg).  The winters there are on par with Siberia's and the extreme cold seems to cause severe degradation of logic.
