MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's Federal Security Service said on Thursday it had thwarted a planned "terror" attack on a power site in Kaliningrad region and that it had arrested a suspect, the Interfax news agency reported.

The report said the FSB had seized a home-made bomb and that the alleged attacker had been motivated by what it said was their hatred of the authorities.
