A new espionage arrest at the military installations in Souda, Crete, has once again drawn the attention of Greek authorities. The incident took place on Sunday, October 4, and adds to a string of similar cases involving foreign nationals caught gathering information on military bases across the country.
According to reports, a 37-year-old woman was arrested in the act of photographing the military facilities at the Souda Naval Base. Police officers rushed to the scene and took her into custody on espionage charges.
During a search, authorities seized three cameras with tripod mounts, along with lenses and six rolls of film, Zarpanews reported. The equipment is expected to form part of the investigation, as officials seek to determine exactly what was photographed and whether the material relates to the military installations in the area.
The 37-year-old was released, and a regular court date has been set for the case.
