Attorney General Todd Blanche announced Tuesday that an indictment has been unsealed in the Southern District of New York charging multiple Russian citizens he said worked for the country’s intelligence community for allegedly financing terrorism and conspiring to commit murder plots around the world. 

The indictment, Blanche said, includes alleged efforts by the group to murder a Russian dissident whom they believed was located in the Washington, D.C. area. 

Blanche made the announcement at a White House Rose Garden press conference.

Neither the identities of the indicted individuals nor charging documents were immediately made available.
