Germany ex-intelligence chief detained for espionage

German authorities have detained former foreign intelligence chief August Hanning, aged 80, on charges of espionage and treason. The arrest followed the discovery of approximately 2,000 secret documents related to sensitive topics such as the Iranian nuclear program, the Russian military, and information from foreign intelligence agencies. It is suspected that Hanning used this information to prepare analyses for external entities. Additionally, a former employee of the agency, who provided him with information in exchange for money, was also detained. The investigation began after raids in September 2025, during which it was revealed that the documents were being removed from highly secured devices. Authorities continue to investigate to determine the parties benefiting from the leak.
