June 24, 2025
The operation to arrest an Azerbaijani national with a British passport in Limassol was well organized, as authorities had information about his movements. He is believed to have been spying on the British base at Akrotiri and the airbase in Paphos, with the aim of gathering information and planning a terrorist act. Physical surveillance was conducted on the suspect before his arrest. The Azerbaijani man is thought to have connections to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
