Cuban national Oemis Romagoza Durruthy, a Latin dance teacher based in Petrozavodsk, Russia, operating under the alias 'Dios', orchestrated a Russian military intelligence (GRU)-linked sabotage campaign targeting multiple EU countries in 2024. He recruited vulnerable individuals, primarily from Spanish-speaking countries, enticing them through social media platforms including Telegram and Facebook. These recruits were tasked remotely with arson and sabotage acts including attacks on commercial and industrial facilities in Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, and Lithuania. One notable recruit, Colombian ex-soldier Luis Alfonso Murillo Diosa, was arrested in Romania in July 2024 for attempted sabotage. Lithuanian prosecutors publicly charged Romagoza and placed him on an international wanted list. The sabotage campaign aligns with a broader pattern of Russia employing so-called 'disposable agents' to conduct deniable hybrid warfare operations against EU targets following diplomatic expulsion of Russian intelligence personnel.
