Charged: UK police apprehend three suspected Russian spies

Biser Dzhambazov and Katrin Ivanova, along with another individual, have been charged by UK police following a major national security investigation, according to a Facebook post.

The group, consisting of two men and a woman, has been accused of spying for Russia and has been charged with identity document offences, as reported by the BBC.

The individuals in question are Bulgarian nationals who were allegedly working for Russian security services. They were apprehended as part of a significant national security investigation.

London's Metropolitan Police have confirmed that five people were arrested in February by counter-terrorism officers under the Official Secrets Act. Three of them, identified as Orlin Roussev, Biser Dzambazov, and Katrin Ivanova, have been charged with possession of false identity documents with improper intention.

The three individuals appeared at London's Old Bailey Court in July and have been remanded in custody until a future date.
