A man in Greece was charged with espionage for filming NATO supply convoys at Alexandroupolis port allegedly for Russia’s GRU.
A 59-year-old Greek citizen of Georgian origin was charged with espionage-related offenses in Greece after allegedly filming military supply convoys bound for Ukraine at the strategic northeastern port of Alexandroupolis, a key logistics hub for U.S. and NATO forces. He was arrested and jailed pending trial. The suspect confessed to taking photos and videos of military material and sending footage via an encrypted application on behalf of an intermediary. Police allege he was recruited by Russia's GRU military intelligence agency through a Georgian intermediary living in Lithuania, who was arrested earlier. The suspect denies all charges and no trial date has been set yet. If convicted, he faces a prison sentence of five to ten years.
Confidence: High
The suspect was charged with espionage for collecting intelligence on NATO military logistics at a key port and passing information to Russian military intelligence, indicating hostile hybrid activity through human intelligence operations.
