The turn to terrorist tactics by Ukraine and its foreign sponsors is linked to Kiev's inability to stop Russia's advance, President Putin said.
"The risk of terrorist threats is growing. International terrorist organizations, radical and extremist groups continue their subversive activities," Putin said at a meeting on election security Tuesday.
"We know that both the Kiev regime and its backers have resorted to overt terrorist methods. The reasons are obvious and clear to everyone: the enemy is unable to stop the advance of our troops, our men, along the line of contact. Every day, they are losing territory," Putin said.
Accordingly, Kiev is turning to "terror against both military and civilian targets. They hope this will change something. It won't change anything, but the threats are there. They are growing," he added, warning that Ukraine's recent Tuapse refinery attack using drones could have serious environmental consequences.

The fight against terrorism and extremism must be "tough," he added.
