A Norwegian man in his 20s, employed as a security guard at the US Embassy in Oslo, was arrested for allegedly spying for Russia and Iran.

He is accused of collecting and sharing sensitive information with foreign authorities, though he denies being a spy.

Norway’s intelligence service confirmed the arrest, citing charges of attempted aggravated intelligence activities involving state secrets.

The investigation is ongoing, and US officials have deferred comments to Norwegian authorities, CNN has reported.

This arrest highlights broader concerns over Russian and Iranian espionage operations globally.
