Bomb experts of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) defused a homemade explosive device equivalent to 80 kilograms of TNT in North Ossetia, a spokesman for the local FSB department said on Saturday.
The bomb was found 10 meters away from a highway near the border with Ingushetia, the spokesman said.
The explosive device was supposed to be used for a terrorist attack on Russian servicemen, moving along this highway, he said.
