Filmed NATO military operations for espionage/ A 59-year-old man is imprisoned

A man has been charged in Greece with espionage-related crimes and has been imprisoned pending trial, after allegedly photographing and filming military operations in the strategic port of Alexandroupolis in northeastern Greece.

According to state television, citing Greek law enforcement officials, the suspect is a 59-year-old Greek citizen born in Georgia and is under investigation for possible links to Russian security services.

The port serves as a key logistics hub for U.S. and NATO operations, facilitating the movement of military equipment and personnel in support of Ukraine and NATO member states in Eastern Europe.

The 59-year-old, whose name has not been released, was arrested on April 29 in a joint operation by police and Greece's National Intelligence Service.

Authorities said he was acting on behalf of another individual and had sent the recordings to that person using an encrypted messaging app, but did not provide further details.

But the defendant's lawyer told the court that he had not sent any classified information and that photographs of NATO operations had been widely published in the media.

According to state television, citing Greek law enforcement officials, the suspect is a 59-year-old Greek citizen born in Georgia and is under investigation for possible links to Russian security services through a contact in Lithuania. /CNA
