“Britain’s counterterrorism police said on Tuesday that they had arrested a member of the U.S. Army on suspicion of spying on behalf of Russia after a joint investigation with the F.B.I. and U.S. military intelligence. The 41-year-old man was arrested near Gloucester, England, about 100 miles west of London, and was in custody pending possible charges, officials said. Officials did not name the man but said in a statement that he had been detained on suspicion of violating Section 1 and Section 3 of Britain’s National Security Act 2023. Those sections relate to obtaining or disclosing protected information and assisting a foreign intelligence service. … In the statement on Tuesday, the police said the arrest of the U.S. Army member on suspicion of espionage was ‘not linked to any other ongoing Counter Terrorism Policing investigations.'” (11/10/26)
