Norway expels 15 Russian diplomats over spying suspicions.
Norway has expelled 15 Russian diplomats accused of spying under diplomatic cover, citing Russia as the "greatest intelligence threat" the country faces. The move comes amid deteriorating security situations in Europe and follows the expulsion of three Russian intelligence officers in April 2022. The Kremlin is expected to respond with an "appropriate answer". Norway shares a land border with Russia in the Arctic and has emulated several European sanctions against Russia despite not being a member of the European Union.
