French authorities have arrested four individuals, including two with Russian nationality, on suspicion of espionage for a foreign entity, the Paris prosecutor announced on Wednesday.

One of the apprehended persons, Anna N, a dual French-Russian national, has been closely monitored by France's DGSI since January under suspicion of collecting economic intelligence.

Anna N's links to SOS Donbass, an association campaigning for closer Europe-Russia ties, reveal the complex landscape of espionage and its potential threats to national interests.
