In 2018, Austrian police, led by Commander Wolfgang #Preiszler, raided the headquarters of the country's domestic intelligence service, the BVT.

Officers seized confidential data and sensitive documents, causing a major scandal and leading to the agency's closure. It's now believe the raid was part of a Moscow-led operation to discredit and restructure #Austria’s spy services with #Kremlin influence, involving the far-right, pro-#Russia Freedom Party (FPÖ)
