Suspected Iran Spy Detained at British Base
A British and Azerbaijani citizen have been arrested in Cyprus on suspicion of spying on a British base for Iran. Cypriot police stopped him on July 17, and he is awaiting extradition to the UK. The suspect, Rashad Sultanov, faces charges of monitoring the military base in Akrotiri and passing information to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, in connection with Britain's first overseas investigation under the National Security Law. These actions come after Iranian drone attacks on the base in March and Britain's use of its facilities to support defensive strikes against Iran.
