Plot to attack Euro 2016 soccer championship thwarted, Ukraine says
Mosques, synagogues and government buildings also among the heavily armed suspect's targets

The SBU said in a statement Monday it had been following the 25-year-old since December, and allowed him to purchase Kalashnikov machine-guns, rocket propelled grenades, 125 kilograms of TNT and other weapons before he was arrested on the border between Ukraine and Poland last month.

The suspect planned a series of attacks on bridges, railways, Jewish and Muslim places of worship, French government buildings including tax offices, and buildings connected to the 2016 European Championship, the SBU said.

Guess he's just a freedom fighter taking France back for the French people.

He's a right-winger but no one's mentioning his name? Yep, that doesn't add up unless his name is Mohammed or etc.

Edit: Note that the video shows the driver (suspect) AND a passenger being arrested.

So who's the passenger???
