Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has released video footage in which a Moscow teenager claims he was coerced into attempting an arson attack after being manipulated through the widely used "Daivinchik" chatbot on Telegram. According to the FSB, the teenager said initial contact began with a profile posing as a young woman who requested his personal details, including location data. The situation escalated when individuals, allegedly posing as Russian law enforcement officials, threatened him with charges of terrorism and high treason, creating intense psychological pressure. The FSB claims the handlers, described as Ukrainian operatives, then instructed him to carry out an attack on a gas station using fuel. The case, as presented by Russian authorities, underscores concerns over the use of digital platforms for coercion and highlights what Moscow describes as an emerging pattern of online manipulation linked to the broader conflict. The chatbot remains active with millions of users, raising fresh security questions. #fsb #russia #ukraine #telegram #daivinchik #cyberwarfare #breakingnews #geopolitics #russiaukrainewar #securityalert #digitalthreat #onlinemanipulation #arsonplot #worldnews #hybridwarfare In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews fsb teen coercion case, moscow teenager arson plot, daivinchik chatbot controversy, telegram bot security threat, russia ukraine hybrid warfare, fsb video teen statement, online manipulation case russia, cyber coercion tactics war, digital honeytrap case, russian security claims ukraine, teen forced into arson attempt, chatbot crime case russia, telegram bot misuse allegations, russia internal security alert, youth targeted online warfare, fsb investigation teen case, social media war tactics, online threat escalation russia, ukraine conflict cyber angle, global news breaking russia case
