Нет, я понимаю, что вам надо по-русски, а лучше в вольном пересказе, что бы все выглядело так как приятнее. Но...
Я не люблю эту газету, либеральные взгляды. Но отдельные заметки достаточно высокого качества. Так что, кому не лень, почитайте, потренируйте свой American English, ну хоть фотографии посмотрите.
Russia Ordered a Killing That Made No Sense. Then the Assassin Started Talking.
RIVNE, Ukraine — The target lived on the sixth floor of a cheerless, salmon-colored building on Vidinska Street, across from a thicket of weeping willows. Oleg Smorodinov found him there, rented a small apartment on the ground floor, and waited.
He had gotten the name from his two handlers in Moscow. They met at the Vienna Cafe, a few blocks from the headquarters of Russia’s domestic intelligence agency, and handed him a list of six people in Ukraine. Find them, they told Mr. Smorodinov, and he set off. He was already boasting to friends that he was a spy.
Each person on the list was assigned a code name related to flowers. One was ‘briar.’ Another was ‘buttercup.’ The target, a man named Ivan Mamchur, was called ‘rose.’ To Mr. Smorodinov, he was a nobody, an electrician who worked at the local jail. To the handlers in Moscow, though, he was significant.
“Drenched in blood up to his elbows,” they told him.
