A man has been arrested on terror charges for allegedly spying on a British RAF base in Cyprus.
The individual, from Azerbaijan, has been locked up for eight days while inquiries are carried out on the Mediterranean island.
He is accused of having British RAF military base in nearby Akrotiri under surveillance since mid-April, as well as Cyprus's own Andreas Papandreou Air Base in the western region of Paphos, the ANT1 news outlet reported.
Cypriot news sources said he had been arrested in the Zakaki suburb of the coastal tourist hotspot Limassol.
Police refused to give any further information, citing national security reasons as tension in the region continues to mount over the Israel-Iran war.
