Germany’s<\/a> Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office said on Tuesday that two people have been accused of spying for Russia<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The two suspects were a 45-year-old Romanian woman, who was detained in the northwestern German city of Rheine, and a 43-year-old Ukrainian man, who was arrested in the southeastern Spanish city of Elda.<\/p>\n

The alleged spies were reportedly targeting a German national who supplied drones and related components to Ukraine<\/a>, prosecutors said in a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Starting in December 2025, Sergey N., acting on behalf of a Russian intelligence service, surveilled a person in Germany who was shipping drones and related components from here to Ukraine,” prosecutors said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The man gathered information and made video recordings of the individual’s workplace, it said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
