Uppdrag Granskning has identified a number of suspected Russian spies working at the Russian Embassy in Stockholm. Norway announced on Thursday that it will expel 15 Russian diplomats.

The information comes just days before the Nordic public broadcasters SVT, NRK, DR and YLE publish the series "The Shadow War", an investigation of Russian intelligence activities in the Nordic region. The first episode of the series will be published on SVT Play on Wednesday 19 April. The Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs comments on the Norwegian deportation decision in an email to SVT: "We are not ruling out any measures"
