安哥拉法院对两名俄罗斯男子做出有罪判决。1其中，Lev Lakshtanov被判监禁8年，Igor Ratchin被判监禁11年。1
检控方指控两人参与多项违法活动。1据控，他们计划发动政变、资助反对党并与俄罗斯宣传网络Africa Politology有关。1该网络曾与瓦格纳佣兵集团有联系，并在瓦格纳头目叶夫根尼·普里戈津2023年去世后被俄罗斯外情报局(SVR)接管。1
检控方称两人意图影响安哥拉明年的总统选举，包括资助反对党UNITA或推动执政党MPLA内部领导变更。1
此案同时涉及两名安哥拉人。1体育记者Carlos Tomé获缓刑2年，UNITA青年分会秘书长Francisco de Oliveira被无罪释放。1
安哥拉自1975年从葡萄牙独立以来由MPLA统治。1
Two Russian nationals have been found guilty of terrorism and espionage in Angola, receiving sentences of eight and eleven years respectively. 1 Lev Lakshtanov was sentenced to eight years in prison, while Igor Ratchin received an eleven-year term. 1
Prosecutors alleged that the men planned to orchestrate a coup, finance opposition parties, and were connected to Africa Politology, a Russian propaganda network. 1 The network had previously maintained links to the Wagner mercenary group before being taken over by Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service following the 2023 death of Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin. 1
According to the prosecution, the defendants sought to influence Angola's upcoming presidential elections through multiple avenues, including funding the opposition party UNITA or engineering a leadership change within the ruling MPLA party. 1
Two Angolan nationals were also prosecuted in connection with the case: Carlos Tomé, a sports journalist, received a two-year suspended sentence, while Francisco de Oliveira, secretary of UNITA's youth wing, was acquitted. 1
The convictions come amid significant political turmoil in Angola, where taxi strikes escalated into riots in late July 2025, resulting in 22 deaths and over 1,600 arrests. 1 The country has been governed by the MPLA since gaining independence from Portugal in 1975. 1
