A German man working for the military was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of spying for Moscow, federal prosecutors said. He was arrested in the city of Koblenz in the western state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Prosecutors said that the suspect approached the Russian consulate in the city of Bonn in the neighboring state of North Rhine-Westphalia, and also the Russian embassy in Berlin. The man, who was identified as Thomas H, had visited the embassy and consulate “on his own initiative“ multiple times since May and offered his cooperation, prosecutors said. He is suspected of providing information on his work for a division of the German military, the Bundeswehr, to the diplomatic missions to have it passed on to a Russian secret service.
