Polish authorities have detained a Russian citizen on suspicion of spying after he was caught photographing railway infrastructure. Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda reports the man is suspected of working for Russian intelligence. The case highlights growing security concerns in Poland over surveillance of transport routes, particularly rail lines used for military and humanitarian shipments to Ukraine.
Why now: Spying allegations tied to railway infrastructure resonate with heightened fears of Russian espionage in Eastern Europe amid the war in Ukraine.
