Russia Spying on Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW)

The Netherlands has caught some Russian spies setting up surveillance equipment in the parking lot across the street from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).  This watchdog group has been helping people figure out what Novichok is and where this batch in Salisbury UK came from.  The Russians spy on the groups that prepare negative reports so they can prepare stories to deny them when they come out.  That part is not uncommon. 

What was a little unusual is the surveillance party was sent home that day.  They went back to Russia, so it is a little harder for the Russians to say this was bunch of tourists listening to bird calls and recording them.
