Russian President Vladimir Putin today ordered the country’s secret services to step up “surveillance” inside Russia and hunt down “traitors, spies and saboteurs” as the “emergence of new threats” increases the need for more information.

Putin gave these orders after a series of attacks on military bases and ammunition depots in Russia. Also, in recent months, fires often break out in shopping malls, factories and other facilities.

According to the Telegraph, the Russian president has instructed the Federal Security Service (FSB), the successor to the Soviet KGB, to maximize “the use of operational, technical and personnel potential” to strengthen control over society.

“It is necessary to strictly suppress the actions of foreign special services, to quickly identify traitors, spies and saboteurs,” added Putin, who in his youth served as the director of the KGB.
