Greek police have arrested an Azerbaijani national accused of spying on a NATO base in Crete, shortly after a similar arrest occurred in Cyprus involving an ethnic-Azeri man allegedly linked to a terror plot for Iran. The suspect in Crete was reportedly seen photographing sensitive military areas at Souda Bay, a strategic location for the U.S. and NATO. Meanwhile, the Cyprus arrest involved an individual suspected of planning a terrorist attack on military facilities while acting on behalf of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. These incidents reflect increasing espionage activities amid escalating regional tensions.
The recent arrest of an Azerbaijani national in Crete for spying on a NATO base highlights rising espionage activities linked to regional tensions involving Iran.
The suspect, detained on suspicion of tracking military movements, is part of a broader pattern of espionage and potential terror-related activities connected to the IRGC.
