●Putin’s dirty tricks reach Finnish lavatories

●Russian spies accused of leaving faeces in homes of politicians to intimidate them

Russia has been accused of sending secret agents to defecate in the lavatories of Finnish MPs in a bizarre escalation of its hybrid warfare against the West.

Last week it emerged that some 20 Finnish MPs had reported mysterious break-ins at their homes, with one politician finding faeces left behind in his lavatory.

Ben Zyskowicz, a senior MP for the ruling centre-Right National Coalition Party, believes the behaviour is part of a Russian plot to intimidate Finnish legislators.

“It’s a way for the Russian intelligence service to show that people are being monitored, a way to create confusion or concerns,” Mr Zyskowicz said.

The Russian practice of breaking into the homes of MPs and diplomats has long been a tactic of its intelligence services.

In a method the US state department described as “home intrusions”, agents would move personal items, open windows and set alarms to demoralise and intimidate their targets.

Russian spies, and agents from other countries with feared intelligence services, have also been known to urinate in the toilets of diplomats and journalists to show they are capable of entering their homes.

In perhaps the most notorious example, the Wall Street Journal reported in 2023 that a Russian federal security service (FSB) agent defecated in the suitcase of a senior US official while he was visiting Russia.

Sarah Rainsford, the BBC’s former Russia correspondent, recalled in her memoir Goodbye to Russia that spies entered her flat and left “a large unflushed deposit in each toilet” as a calling card

Luke Harding, a Guardian reporter, also claimed FSB officers would often break into his Moscow apartment, including once when agents left behind a sex manual, shortly before he was expelled from Russia in 2011.

US officials in 2014 reported that Soviet-era counterintelligence tactics were again being used against their diplomats, including tyre-slashing and multiple mysterious break-ins.

In some incidents, windows would be left open or personal belongings moved.

‘Operational psychology’

Michael McFaul, the former US ambassador to Russia, complained at the time of being followed almost everywhere and having his inbox hacked and phones tapped.

The strategy dates back to the Cold War of the 1960s when the KGB developed “operational psychology”, Mr Harding reported in his book Mafia State.

The Soviets were inspired by German Stasi agents, who would target the homes of dissidents to try to make them think they were going mad.

Officers would remove pictures from walls or swap one type of tea for another, leaving their targets largely unaware that the Stasi was behind the disturbances. In one particularly alarming incident, a vibrator was sent to a target’s wife.

Some victims suffered breakdowns or ended up killing themselves as a result.

Jürgen Fuchs, a writer who was targeted by the Stasi, described the “Zersetzung” technique as “an assault on the human soul”.

He was convinced before his death in 1999 that he had been deliberately exposed to radiation by the secret police, causing his terminal cancer, after three dissidents died within a short period from similar rare forms of leukaemia.

The latest spate of incidents appears to be the first time such tactics have been used in Finland, which angered Russia by joining Nato following its invasion of Ukraine.

Jussi Halla-aho, the speaker of the Finnish parliament, said he was launching an investigation into the “significant” series of break-ins.

He said clues were left in politicians’ apartments to indicate someone had been there, despite there being no signs of forced entry and nothing stolen or damaged.

“I cannot comment precisely on the number of suspicious cases known to us, but in any event it is a significant number,” he said, adding that the incidents happened last year.

With Finland’s parliamentary elections six months away, authorities are on high alert for potential Kremlin sabotage or influence campaigns, as tensions remain high along the country’s long border with Russia.

When asked about the incidents, Alexander Stubb, the Finnish president, said: “An attack on a member of parliament is an attack on democracy.

“It should not be allowed or accepted in any form… I stand in support of every member of parliament.”

Highly ridiculous! Defecation strategy of intimidation,.

I smell propaganda here. Why would highly intelligent security agents leave ample amounts of strong DNA materials as intimidation tactics?

It doesn’t make sense. Isn’t this as foolish as leaving severe finger prints and muddy shoe prints all over the mirrors, door handles and the carpets/rugs to scare your opponents?

It’s silly and unbelievable.

Hahahahahahaha, and it made front page! A retired CIA officer John Kiriakou openly mentioned how the LLisraeli Moossad were doing this same thing to US officials both on US soil and the State of LIsrael, nobody said jack. From Russia using washing machine chips to defecating in diplomats' houses. Funny lots

We now take The Onion articles seriously?

Some propaganda no just make sense

Yahoo Boys are not there to use am with bread 🍞

I wasn't there
So how are my to believe?
Let me hear from Russian side?

How can all these high ranking people not have better security systems including remote CCTV sensing to factualise these incidents.

WriteerNg:
Senseless propaganda.

Only a fuuuull with 0 brain cells believes this.

Don't forget to mention Russian drones, aircrafts and missiles that are entering NATO airspace with reckless abandon.

What has NATO done about it? Nothing other than issuing lengthy statements.

Article 5 of NATO naa for weak nations

Article 5 na for national with weak military capabilities

It's all part of the game for the former KGB-turn-President. It's a multi-pronged approach.

Old habits die hard.

Russia plays in the gutters. Always their modus. The Europeans refuse to learn. But I trust the Finns – they know how to deal with Russians.

This shouldn't suprise anyone.How will you invade another country and occupied part of their territory if you're not a thief.

It's only people who are professionals in burglary that can do that.

Patriotic9ja:

Well, that's entirely possible. Russia secretly poisons people to make them ill. Russian citizens who get in the Kremlin's bad book either get pushed out of windows or poisoned.

I trust the Finns. They will address this going forward. They've always had the antidote to Russia's madness.

Smh for you. Idi Amin and Gadafi killed people - that wasn't propaganda. People die of hunger in N Korea - no propaganda there. As for Traore, that's a matter for another day.

Very disgusting russia is still very far from civilisation despite all their technological advancements this is why I will always support the US and isreal any day any time.

A russia that can invade Ukraine unprovoked is capable of anything putin his govt are not sane people.

If this news is true then I'm disappointed in those spies. Do they ate watering bean or what? How is defecating part of intelligence gathering as a spy?
