Belarusian arrested for espionage at French drone plant

A Belarusian citizen was arrested near the Delair UAV factory near Toulouse in early June for filming a drone prototype and sending the video to a person in Russia. The arrest occurred days after unknown individuals threw Molotov cocktails at the factory, though the devices failed to explode and caused minimal damage. The Toulouse prosecutor's office opened a criminal case for destruction of property and arrested the Belarusian on suspicion of espionage. The factory supplies both civilian and military drones to Ukraine, and authorities have not confirmed if the two incidents are connected.
