I mean if this is true I can't imagine the Russians would think this would be a very successful attempt. This would be hilarious as a movie plot. Polish grandpa is a Soviet sleeper agent being pulled out of his retirement home and having a fsb agent attempt to explain to him how to operate a drone.
I guess throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks works with assassinations as well?
It's part of the basic premise for Slow Horses Season 2.
Lol, people need to keep their damn hands off the lathe of heaven.
