Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) officers have shot and killed a man suspected of plotting a series of terror attacks in Russia, its press office reported Friday.

The FSB said the man, whom they called “a Ukrainian military intelligence agent”, had arrived in Moscow from Lithuania in March to prepare terror attacks “on the region’s military and energy infrastructure”.

Russian security officers attempted to detain the suspect in the Moscow region, the FSB wrote, but he had initially put up armed resistance and managed to flee.

The suspect was later tracked to Gatchina, a town in the Leningrad region in northwestern Russia, where he put up armed resistance again, but this time was shot dead, the FSB added.

It read s as follows.

FSB officers shoot dead, ‘Ukrainian military intelligence agent’ in northwestern Russia

Headlines rarely use punctuation characters.

A better way to write it though, may be as follows:

‘Ukrainian military intelligence agent’ shot dead by FSB officers in NW Russia

Ruzzian FSB frames a Putin critic for terrorism, carries out an extrajudicial execution, and FSB tries to make it into a propaganda victory.

You are correct, however Eastern European news sources can be more enigmatic in both headlines and article content, to native English speakers.

Understanding what they are saying is often difficult, and ya can't change the words (unless you're Western Mainstream Media, a Democrat or the FBI).
