Salsa Instructor in Russia Linked to European Sabotage Network

A Cuban-born salsa instructor living in Petrozavodsk, Oemis Romagoza Durruthy, is identified by Deutsche Welle and partners as the alleged recruiter behind a disposable-agent network that sought to carry out arson and sabotage across at least four EU countries in 2024, via Telegram ads recruiting Latin Americans and others with military or logistical experience. Recruits were given tasks such as photographing sites and planning attacks; one Colombian recruit, Luis Alfonso Murillo Diosa, was sentenced in Romania to six years for attempted sabotage after being directed to target a waste facility and an oil well. At least a dozen people were recruited, with several detained and two already serving six-to-eight-year sentences; Lithuanian prosecutors publicly linked the plots to Russian military intelligence, and Lithuanian authorities issued an international wanted notice for Romagoza, who teaches dance in Russia and obtained citizenship in 2022. It remains unclear whether he continued recruiting after 2024, but authorities say suspected Russian sabotage activity in Europe has continued, with ongoing investigations across EU countries.
