		</div><p>Russian officials say they have foiled a terrorist plot and detained men trained in Syria by Islamic State, less than two weeks after Russia carried out its first air strikes on Syria.</p>
<p>Russia’s counterterrorism agency on Sunday raided a Moscow apartment and arrested several Russians who were allegedly preparing to carry out an attack in the capital.</p>
<p>The FSB intelligence agency said in a statement on Monday that an improvised explosive device with 5kg of unidentified explosives was found in that apartment.</p>
<p>The FSB said several men were detained, including two who said they had been trained by IS militants and were plotting a terrorist attack on Moscow’s public transport.</p>
<p>Authorities did not say how many people were detained but said “between six and 11 people” frequented the apartment.</p>
<p>The men had arrived in Moscow “well before” Russia began carrying out air strikes in Syria, the FSB said.</p>
<p>More than 100 residents of the apartment building in western Moscow were evacuated during Sunday’s raid and supplies of natural gas were cut off for the duration.</p>
<p>Russia’s air strikes in Syria have been met by warnings that they encourage Islamic extremists to turn their sights on Russia and make it easier for them to recruit Russian Muslims.</p>
<p>Russia says 2,400 of its citizens have joined IS.</p>
