Russia arrests German man, calls him a Ukraine 'mercenary'

A German man has been arrested by Russia's FSB, accused of being a mercenary for Ukraine. The FSB claims he deserted due to unpaid wages and has a military background as a sniper in the Bundeswehr. This incident coincides with the release of a US teacher detained on similar charges. Germany's government has acknowledged the reports but has not provided further details. The FSB has detained numerous foreign nationals since the invasion of Ukraine, often on charges related to mercenary activities. Recently, a Swedish national was also arrested under similar accusations.
